A LOOK at the key moments from the game against Walsall.
BURNLEY
MARLON BERESFORD: Another unhappy display and he will know his error for the second goal was a pivotal moment in the match ...5
MARK McGREGOR: As ever did not do much wrong but at times was guilty of just lumping the ball forward when other options existed ...6
IAN COX: Taken off at half time and he was guilty of allowing Leitao to get free close to goal to head the opener ...5
DRISSA DIALLO: Arguably his worst display for the Clarets. Made some strong challenges but also gifted the ball to Walsall too often ...5
GRAHAM BRANCH: Made one vital challenge to stop the rampaging Leitao but failed to offer enough support in attack ...6
IAN MOORE: A couple of typical bursts down the right but never got a sight of goal before he was removed at the interval ...5
TONY GRANT: Another player sacrificed at half time after struggling to make an impact. Game was passing him by ...5
PAUL COOK: Is effective in the holding role when the scores are leve but when it comes to chasing the game needs to have a bigger influence ...6
PAUL WELLER: Second full game and still finding his feet but he kept working away in the middle and should improve for it ...6
ALAN MOORE: Missed a great chance to open the scoring and was too weak in too many challenges when a bit of bite was needed ...5
GARETH TAYLOR: Earned the penalty with a good run into the box but was well marshalled by the home defence. Booking number 12 ...6
SUBS: ROBBIE BLAKE (46 for Grant) Passes led to both goals 7; GLEN LITTLE (46 for I Moore) Lovely goal but still not firing 6;
STEVE DAVIS (46 for Cox) Needs more games 6
Subs not used: Nik Michopoulos, Dimitri Papadopoulos
