Player ratings from Shrewsbury Town's defeat to MK Dons as five players get 5/10 and one gets a 7/10
Jordan Preece rates the players from Shrewsbury Town's 2-1 defeat against MK Dons at the Croud Meadow.


WILL BROOK
Made his home league debut and looked steady between the sticks. He couldn't do much about the goals but showed he is a competent deputy.
Respectable: 6
TOM SANG
The forward-thinking full-back had a steady game, he was not in the spotlight too much, but wanted to push forward when he could.
Steady: 6
LUCA HOOLE
Came back into the team and into a new role, replacing the injured Tom Anderson at right centre-back, he did okay and showed that he is adaptable.
Okay: 6
WILL BOYLE
Lost Alex Gilbey for the first goal, who flicked the ball on to Scott Hogan, but Boyle did have a late headed chance.
Mediocre: 5
SAM STUBBS
It was not his best match in blue and amber, and he could have done better to clear the ball when Will Collar stabbed home.
Disappointing: 5
SAM CLUCAS
The experienced pro will not want to watch the first goal back after he lost Scott Hogan, but he is a level above on the ball.
Varied: 6
TOMMY MCDERMOTT
The Burnley loanee had a long distance effort in the first half, which went way wide, but he provided some energy in the centre of the park.
Relentless: 6
TAYLOR PERRY
One of the longest serving members of the Shrews squad, but he was not at his usual level and failed to create any major chances.
Fruitless: 5
ISMEAL KABIA
Was the best player on the pitch for Shrewsbury, he could have had a goal and showed he certainly has an eye for a pass. Just needs to find that cutting edge.
Tenacious: 7
JOHN MARQUIS
The captain didn't get going, and another game where he has failed to find the net or look a threat in front of goal.
Ineffective: 5
BRADLEY IHIONVIEN
Had a difficult first half and could not get a foothold in the game, and the forward was replaced by George Lloyd at half time.
Subbed: 5
SUBSTITUTES
George Lloyd (Ihionvien, 45) 6, Chuks Aneke (McDermott, 65) 7, Harrison Biggins (Perry, 65) 6, Isaac England (Sang, 89) 6. Subs not used: Harrison, Scully, Nsiala
