Tom Heaton - 6
Little he could do about the goals. Did well to stop a Baines free kick, otherwise routine stuff.
Kieran Trippier - 7
Bright down the right and got decent deliveries into the box.
Michael Duff - 5
Might have done better to stop the Eto’o header. A cheap goal to concede, and early.
Jason Shackell - 5
Offered too much space to Lukaku and it cost the Clarets a second.
Stephen Ward - 5
Replaced Mee at left back, but did little to effect a positive outcome.
Michael Kightly - 5
Often opted for the cross when driving at the defence might have proved more dangerous.
David Jones - 6
Steady in midfield, keeping possession and using the ball well.
Scott Arfield - 7
Threatened with efforts from distance but struggled to hit the target.
George Boyd - 7
Followed up last weekend’s man of the match performance with another lively afternoon.
Danny Ings - 7
Broke his Premier League duck with a well-taken goal. Lively, but other chances were sparse.
Lukas Jutkiewicz - 6
Set up Ings with the perfect pass. Needs to use the aggression he has against the ball to attack it.
MAN OF THE MATCH
Scott Arfield
Never gave up at any stage. Stayed motivated and kept going.
