THOMAS: Another of those afternoons when he was always in the right place at the right time with nothing getting past him, especially at the death when Burnley were under pressure...9

LITTLE: The wing man floated around to try and coax Burnley forward but unable to prise open City's solid defence...6

COOK: Unfurled a couple of tempting passes to get Smith forward, but not able to pull the strings in hs normal dominant fashion...6

ARMSTRONG: Highly effective last line of defence on the odd occasion Thomas and Davis were by-passed, one first half tackle on Jones staying in the mind...8 PAYTON: Always looking for that half-chance it was never a day for the strikers with so little to feed on in the box...6

BRANCH: Rarely given a sight of goal on a defence-dominated day...6

SUBS

MULLIN: Tidy on the ball in the last 20 minutes but without the opportunity to inflict any real damage

JOHNROSE: Came on as Burnley settled for the draw and made a couple of important tackles to ensure they got it

JEPSON: Another late entry just to keep things tight and avoid any late mis-haps with a point in the bag
