MILLER: A nightmare first half but rescued his reputation with a couple of good moments after the break. A better keeper than he showed here...5
McATEER: Seemed to enjoy himself, got forward and created the third goal with an excellent pass ...7
DAILLY: Shrugged off a couple of blows to the head to hold the defence together under United's aerial bombardment 7
BROOMES: Plenty of determined defending as he started for the first time under Souness...7
HARKNESS: When it's going to be a battle, as against a Neil Warnock side, you are unlikely to find him wanting...7
GILLESPIE: A few good runs and crosses, despite the boots flying in. Always causes trouble running at players...7
FLITCROFT: I suspect we will not see the skipper back to his best until next season, but he is getting there...7
DUNN: Great play to set up the second goal and a super show after half time...8
DUFF: A close call for man of the match between two or three but Duff gets the vote for his clinical finishing skills, especially the first which took the pressure off. He gave United's right back a torrid afternoon...9
WARD: Has his critics but do any of Rovers' strikers work as hard? Deserved his goal...7
OSTENSTAD: Possibly his best game for the club, showed some superb first-half touches and produced a classy finish for superb goal...8
SUBS
BLAKE: Didn't make much of an impact against his former club
JOHNSON: Good ball set up the fifth for Matt Jansen
JANSEN: Played a major role in the fourth goal and scored the fifth, can't ask for much more than that in nine minutes!
