A LOOK at the key moments and stats from the game against Watford.

BURNLEY

MARLON BERESFORD: He pulled off yet another great penalty save to extend his remarkable record of stopping spot kicks 8

DEAN WEST: Got forward well down the right but again his delivery was oftne not good enough, sometimes delaying instead of whipping it in early 6

KEVIN BALL: He was given nthe skipper's armband and did a good job in the heart of the defence with some key challenges before returning to midfield 7

ARTHUR GNOHERE: Had a better game than of late but still had to work hard to control the home side's attack 6

GRAHAM BRANCH: After a promising start he struggled against the lively Jermaine Pennant and was taken off early on 5

GLEN LITTLE: Getting sharper with every game and produced some very nice touches. Should have scored but pass set up the winner 7

TONY GRANT: Gave away the ball too often again but dug in and made some important challenges 6

PAUL WELLER: Will never score an easier goal and may never score a more important one 7

LEE BRISCOE: His stunning free kick against the post started the fightback and he showed his versatility by filling midfield and defensive roles 7

IAN MOORE: His pace frightened the home side to death and he created good chances for team mates by running at the heart of the defence 7

GARETH TAYLOR: His last contribution was a cross to the far post where no one was and it summed up his evening 6

TALKING TACTICS

STAN Ternent sprang a surprise by leaving out skipper Ian Cox but he stuck with 4-4-2, Kevin Ball playing alongside Arthur Gnohere in central defence.

Glen Little and Paul Weller returned in midfield for Paul Cook and the injured Alan Moore.

When Blake replaced Graham Branch Ian Moore dropped to right midfield as Little enjoyed a roaming role.

Vialli went 4-4-2 and looked to use wide men Jermain Pennant and Lee Cook as often as possible.
