Nick Pope 7

Commanding claim in the first half but was given the eyes by Martial for United’s winning goal

Phil Bardsley 6

Much better than last week but wasn’t close enough to Martial as United found space to strike

James Tarkowski 8 (Man of the Match)

Comfortable against the pace and power of Lukaku and equally happy being dragged into wide areas, almost always winning his battles against United’s pacey front men. Calm in possession as well, happy to bring the ball down and try and get the Clarets playing.

Ben Mee 7

Made some fantastic blocks and strong in the air, but was too easily turned by Lukaku in build-up to goal

Lancashire Telegraph:

Charlie Taylor 8

Continuing to grow in stature in the Premier League. A threat going forward and coped with Mata with ease

Johann Berg Gudmundsson 8

Burnley’s most creative threat, happy to go outside or inside and unlucky to hit the bar with a free-kick

Jack Cork 7

Twice fouled by Pogba as he sought to drive the Clarets forward. Happy to spread the ball wide when in possession

Lancashire Telegraph:

Steven Defour 8

Matched United’s star-studded midfield and impressive in possession, often finding Taylor in space

Scott Arfield 7

Drifted infield to take up clever positions, seeing a lot of the ball and allowing Taylor to move forward

Jeff Hendrick 7

Much better than of late. Heavily involved early on and saw more of the ball on the turn, looking forward in possession

Lancashire Telegraph:

Ashley Barnes 7

Relished his battle with Jones and caused him problems, winning plenty of free-kicks for his side
