Jon Harley
Jon Harley - scored the highest in the player ratings
O'Connor gave the Clarets an early lead on Saturday and turned in another excellent performance in midfield. It was enough to earn him 20.0% of the vote in our man of the match poll.

Goalkeeper Brian Jensen took second place with 16.4% of the vote, that boosted by his second half penalty save from Robert Koren with the score at 2-1. Jon Harley has been in top form since returning to the side and he was just behind Jensen in third place with 16.2% of the vote.

Third place in the man of the match poll, but Harley was very much the winner in the player ratings. He scored a rating of 7.50 out of 10 to take all three points, and right behind him was his fellow full back Graham Alexander whose rating of 7.42 was enough to give him second place.

They were well clear of the rest of the team and it was James O'Connor who sneaked in to take third place with a rating of 6.65 to give him one more point to add to winning man of the match. Both he and Jon Harley scored a total of four points towards the Clarets Mad Player of the Year whilst Graham Alexander and Brian Jensen collected two each.
