Sheffield Wednesday player ratings as Barry Bannan dazzles in crucial MK Dons victory

Rarely troubled in the first half. Rushed off his line to try and prevent Parrott from reducing the arrears. Thwarted Twiner after the break. Never looked flustered and expertly commanded his area. His distribution could have been better at times.

Gave Parrott too much time and space to lift the ball over Peacock-Farrell. Kept going and played his part in a big result. Booked.

Made a couple of important challenges early on. Was forced off with a knock six minutes before half-time. Wednesday will be hoping that injury is nothing serious.

Deployed on the left of the back three. Read the game really well and did a lot of good covering work. Excellent showing from the experienced defender. Booked.

Not hugely troubled in a defensive sense and linked cleverly with Bannan for the opener. A nice way for him to celebrate his 150th outing for the club.

Put in a real shift in the the middle of the park and covered plenty of ground. Got stuck in and won the ball on a few occasions. Neat and tidy in possession.

Had big shoes to fill with Luongo ruled out by injury. His work rate was exceptional and he produced several eye-catching runs from deep. Very encouraging.

Ran the show. Two assists and a goal of the season contender. The best player on the pitch. Arguably playing the best football of his career. A magician.

Looked bright down the left flank and tried to make things happen. Put in a couple of lovely crosses and stuck to his task defensively. Booked.

It took the striker just 10 minutes to justify his recall as he drilled in his eighth goal of the season after a lovely corner routine involving Hunt and Bannan. A hard-working shift.

Volleyed in his third goal in the last four matches
