CRICHTON: Made one decent first-half save but uncertain at times in the air with a couple of questionable punches 6

LITTLE: Blew hot and cold early on but led the Pool defence a merry dance in the second half and laid on Payton's second with a classic cross 8

THOMAS: Not at his best until moving across to the left and becoming highly effective in support of the attack 7

COX: Less certain than in the League outings, although like the rest of the team got better as the game went on 6

DAVIS: Passing was off beam in the first half but a real threat from corners, emphasised by a stunning third goal 7

COOK: Played too deep and didn't hurt the opposition as normal with the ball 5

COOKE: Saw precious little action where it really mattered as the Clarets struggled in the first half 5

BRISCOE: Didn't get the chance to get forward early on but slotted into midfield well during the fightback 6

WELLER: Didn't hit the heights of Saturday but looked Burnley's best bet for a goal early on 7

BALL: Couldn't get a grip of the game before the break but changed that after half-time to help the Clarets take control 6

GRAY: Hardly got a sniff of the action as Burnley gave the front two little support in the first half 5

SUBSTITUTES

* PAYTON: Missed an early chance after his half-time introduction but did everything else right with a typically predatory hat-trick 9

BRANCH: Had too much pace and movement for the Pool defence and played a big part in the Clarets' revival 8

MULLIN: Seized his chance with an impressive performance, one of his typical bursts winning the penalty that got Burnley back level 8
