Oxford United player ratings in impressive Ipswich Town win

Jack Currie and Stan Mills scored the duo of goals to help Aaron Ramsey’s Yellows to the U’s fourth win from four pre-season friendlies.

The victory concludes a successful summer on the pitch amid worrying events off the field with the Yellows currently under a temporary transfer embargo.

Jamie Cumming – 7

The United goalkeeper managed his first clean sheet of pre-season and did so with some decent saves, remaining firm to deny a couple of shots at him and tipping a free kick over the bar.

A relatively comfortable afternoon.

Brodie Spencer (Peter Kioso 73) – 7

Strong in the tackle once again and kicked off the move for the first goal. Expect Spencer will be one of the best right backs in League One this season.

Sam Long (Helik 77) – 6

Did not notice him much, which is a good thing, but helped restrict Chuba Akpom to basically nothing up front.

Ciaron Brown (Golding 77) – 6.5

Popped up slightly more with some defensive contributions and was comfortable playing out from defence with Long.

Jack Currie (Leigh 77) – 8

Was everywhere on the left side.

Combined with Aidomo Emakhu spectacularly all afternoon, overlapping and underlapping frequently to bamboozle the Ipswich wide men.

Popped up in a terrific position to poke home the opener.

Jamie McDonnell (Bradney 73) – 6.5

Felt like he grew into the game and looked confident especially in the second half, pressing with energy and playing nice, simple passes to those further forward.

Cameron Brannagan (Snowden 77) – 8

Led by example and was at the crucial pivot in Ramsey’s ball-playing system.

Had a few efforts blocked as well, but was key in the midfield for United.

Stan Mills (Elliott-Wheeler 73) – 6

Did not have his most joyful afternoon, not quite getting the beating of his man and picking up a booking, but still managed to score with some brilliant pressure.

He will thrive this year.

Tyler Goodrham (Sibley 73) – 7.5

Brilliant in the pockets, creating and taking chances, and looks a really mature no.10.

Aidomo Emakhu (Dembele 66) – 8

Fashioned many a chance, confidently beating his man on the left, and is even adding some flicks and tricks to his game. Impressed.

Mark Harris (O’Donkor 73) – 6

Was in the game and a couple of efforts which were saved but nothing too troubling.
