LAWRENCE VIGOUROUX – 6

Not ever truly tested by the visitors but was neat and tidy with whatever did come his way.

BRADLEY BARRY – 6

Looked a little rusty after a lengthy lay-off and was not as involved in the game as much as Ormonde-Ottewill in the opposition full-back slot.

NATHAN THOMPSON – 7

One critical block early on showed he meant business and was a solid and last-line of defence whenever his team needed him to be.

LLOYD JONES – 6

Had a personal duel with Amad-Holloway that the Oldham man perhaps shaded but the Liverpool loanee still got in some important blocks.

BRANDON ORMONDE-OTTEWILL – 7

Not a busy afternoon in defence so was a useful outlet in attack as he got forward well, sending in some dangerous crosses.

CHARLIE COLKETT – 6

Was outshone by Ince, who dominated the midfield. A few clever passes in attack but poor with his set-pieces.

ROHAN INCE – 9

Powerful, energetic, dynamic. Brilliant performance as he won every ball and made a string of smart passes. Will be massive in Town’s relegation fight. Booked.

BEN GLADWIN – 7

Had much more of an influence on the game than recent weeks, drove forward well on occasion and seemed there to offer himself in every Town attack.

JAMES BROPHY – 7

Showed his abundance of pace and posed a real threat to the Latics down both flanks to send in several good balls into the box.

JONATHAN OBIKA – 8

After an indifferent return in recent weeks, was right up for this gave. Put his himself about amongst the Latics defene and was a focal point for all of Town’s attacks.

NICKY AJOSE – 6

Tested Oldham keeper Ripley twice in the first six minutes but disappeared after that. Tried to run some good channels but was not found often enough.

Substitutes:

JOHN GODDARD – 6

(For Brophy, 68) Tidy in possession and tried to add a bit more creativity as the hosts’ play waned in the second half.

LUKE NORRS – 6

(For Obika, 77) Was not on for long but always looked for the ball and got on the end of a few good chances.

DION CONROY – 5

(For Ince, 77) The game was already frenetic by the time of his arrival so he was bypassed slightly.

Not used: Will Henry, Conor Thomas, Anton Rodgers, Yaser Kasim.
