MYLES ROBERTS

The on-loan goalkeeper made three very decent saves in the first period to keep Walsall level, including a quickfire double stop. An assured display.

Vital: 8

HARRISON BURKE

Started the game well with very comfortable and confident use of the ball. Stanley's Heath was a threat but Burke recovered for Saddlers.

Recovered: 7

ADEN FLINT

What a signing he has been and what a performance this was. A colossus in both boxes. Sadler called him a "monster" aerially. Match-winner.

Monster: 8

EVAN WEIR

The recent goalscorer was at it again showing his technical ability from the left side of Walsall's back three. Offers such poise with the ball.

Comfortable: 7
