Pope 7 - not masses to do but did it well
Lowton 8 - much improved
Tarkowski 9 - solid
Mee 9 mom - ditto
Taylor 9 - superb couple of defensive touches to stop the Mata and Martial chances being golden ones
Hendrick 7 - solid
Westwood 8 - pressed well
Cork 8 - as Westy
Mc Neill 7 - excellent 2nd half
JayRod 8 - what a finish
Wood 8 - took his goal very well

Great performance

He is good, however, there have been better defenders such as Alex Elder or my good friend John Angus.
Having said that ---I do like Charlie and I also like Phil who always does good job.
Depends. Those two had to play against guys who smoked, drank and we're never really as fit as today's forwards. Not to mention the quality of pitches making it harder for forwards to pass and dribble on.

Different era now, probably makes Taylor better than those greats.

Pope 7 - Not a great deal to do but instilled confidence with anything he did need to deal with.
Lowton 8 - Delighted to see him play well with no mistakes.Will do his confidence the power of good.
Tarkowski 9 - Didnt miss anything.
Mee 9 mom - Defensive animal.
Taylor 9 - Looks categorically to be a PL player now. One of the first names on the sheet for me.
Hendrick 8 - Chased well and kept possession and play ticking over nicely.
Westwood 8 - Good haranguing of their midfield.
Cork 8 - As per Westwood.
Mc Neill 7 - Looked overawed with a very muted attacking performance, albeit against Wan Bissaka. Poor first half but good defensively in the second.
JayRod 8 - Great finish and looked threatening.
Wood 9 - Lead the line well and always looked in the mood for a goal.

Great performance in both defence and attack. I'm particularly chuffed to see Jay and Woody starting to build a partnership. All played well bar McNeil (in the first half) which does leave me scratching my head when I see 9's for him, but each to their own.

Outstanding team performance. We looked totally up for it from the start. We looked like an experienced Premier League team and didn’t give the opposition too much respect. Well done to Dyche too and the noisy fans too.

More about the collective than the individual...

Pope 8
Lowton 8
Tarky 9*
Mee 9
Taylor 8
Hendrick 8
Westwood 8
Cork 8
McNeil 7
Wood 8
Rodriguez 8

Time to reflect has caused me to give my MOM to Tarky but there were so many in with a shout.

Dwight not marked as high isn't because he didn't do any dazzling runs and crosses but more because he isn't aware as most when defending. Hopefully this will come with more experience.

when Wood scored I didn't even react because of VAR, set piece anything could be given. When Jay scored I think the neighbours heard me, no way VAR was going to rule that out :D

Brilliant team display.
All the media writing about Man Utd's woes. They should be praising Burnley's defensive wall.

Pope 8
Lowton 9 what an improvement
Tarks 9
Mee 9
Taylor 9
Hendrick 8
Westwood 8
Cork 8
McNeil 10 he took so much pressure off the defence enabling them to regroup.
Wood 9
Rodriguez 10 his best Burnley game.

Can I just say a massive well done to Matt Lowton as well. I've been quite harsh on him for a number of games and I didn't think he still had that level of performance in him. A barnstorming performance imo which he can hopefully now carry on with

At the match I met ex-ManU player Jimmy Greenhough who singled out those two plus Andy Lochead as the best of his time.

Just rewatched the last hour. Chris Wood seemed a bit overcome at the end and might even have shed a tear. Anybody else notice this. Watching it live I was celebrating too much to notice anything.

I didn't, but after a match like that and all our fans in the corner giving it ten, it's easy to imagine.

It'd certainly get to me.
