Ethan Ennis

Ennis played well once more but could not stop his Fleetwood side falling to a 2-5 defeat to Barnet.

He made five key passes in the match and had one assist. His low cross was swept in by Harrison Neal to give the Cod Army hope.

Ennis also completed a total of three crosses and had one shot on goal. The winger was successful in two tackles and came out on top in four duels to help his side defensively.

His dribbles did not come off, though, as he lost the ball five times when trying to carry the ball forward. He will next be in action on Saturday when his side travel to face Accrington Stanley.

Toby Collyer

The United midfielder had a rare start as Hull City drew 0-0 with league leaders Coventry City.

He played 74 minutes, making 79% of his passes. Collyer completed all three of his dribbles and also won all three of his tackle attempts in the match.

The youngster was also strong in his duels, winning an impressive seven of nine attempts.

Collyer and Hull will next travel to Sheffield United on Saturday afternoon as the race for the Championship play-offs heats up.
