BRISTOL ROVERS PLAYER RATINGS

JORDI VAN STAPPERSHOEF - 4

Tough job stepping in for Anssi Jaakkola, but he had to do better with the opening goal. The free-kick was well struck, but very much in the Dutchman’s reach and to fail to get a hand on it was a poor effort. Made a good save to deny Josh Morris shortly after the break.

MAX EHMER - 4

His experience was desperately needed with Jaakkola unavailable, but his defence turned in a poor first-half performance where they failed to deal with the conditions. More comfortable after the break, but the damage was done.

JACK BALDWIN - 4

Had a torrid first half in admittedly awful conditions, but Rovers needed more resilience from a player of his experience. Improved in the second half.

CIAN HARRIES - 4

Will have learned a lot from a chastening afternoon in awful conditions against a savvy Fleetwood side.

JOSH HARE - 4

Barely featured in the first half as Rovers struggled to buiuld any passages of play. Taken off at half-time.

ALI KOIKI - 5

Got stuck in but offered little as an attacking outlet.

JOSH GRANT - 5

Scored a good goal, but had a difficult afternoon otherwise.

ZAIN WESTBROOKE - 4

Gasheads have been calling for him to stamp his authority on a game, but he lacked influence, particularly in a first half when Rovers could get nothing going. LUKE MCCORMICK - 4

Energetic but ineffective and was replaced at half-time.

ERHUN OZTUMER - 5 (PICTURED) Buzzed around and offered imagination, but Rovers struggled to get him the ball in the areas where he thrives.

BRANDON HANLAN - 5

Totally isolated in a first half where Rovers strung almost nothing together. A very frustrating afternoon.
