THE Oxford Mail player ratings for Oxford United's 1-0 loss at Northampton Town.
JACK STEVENS
Didn't have a save to make, but a couple of shaky moments - 5
ANTHONY FORDE
Set-pieces were consistently good, contributed defensively and going forward. MAN OF THE MATCH - 6.5
ELLIOTT MOORE
Solid enough, could argue he needed to rouse the team better after going behind - 6
ROB ATKINSON
A threat from corners, could have been a different game if his goal had been given - 6.5
JOSH RUFFELS
Generall tidy but let Hoskins run off him for the goal - 5.5
ALEX GORRIN
Showed flashes of the Gorrin of old, but not consistently - 5.5
JOE GRAYSON
Dangerous set-pieces, but didn't affect the game in open play - 5

Impact lessened as the game went on and he became frustrated - 5
MIDE SHODIPO
Offered little, frustrating after he was so good against Doncaster - 4
SAM WINNALL
Made his presence felt, but service wasn't there - 5
