September player of the month Lukas Jutkiewicz

It was a poor performance at the Hawthorns, there is no doubting that, and the player ratings reflect that with not one player reaching the average six out of ten. The man of the match vote also recorded the least number of votes for a game this season.

That vote saw Chalobah, coming on as a substitute at half time, finish first in the man of the match vote with a 26.3% share with Michael Duff in second place having won 16.1%.

Two more players reached double figures. Ashley Barnes, who came on alongside Chalobah at the start of the second half, was third with 12.0% with Ben Mee taking fourth place with a 10.6% share.

This was the first time since the 2012/13 season that no player has reached six. Chalobah was again the winner with a rating of 5.62 out of 10. He was followed by Jason Shackell and the third substitute Marvin Sordell on 4.89 who took joint second place.

Just behind them were Barnes and Michael Kightly who both had ratings of 4.84 out of 10 to take joint fourth place.

The result wins Chalobah the maximum ten points towards the Clarets Mad Player of the Year. All of Barnes, Duff, Shackell and Sordell have been awarded three points with both Kightly and Mee collecting one point.

Scott Arfield and Jutkiewicz still lead the way at the top of the table. Arfield won the August player of the month and Jutkiewicz is the September winner with 17 points from the three games.

The next vote will be for the Leicester game and that will be underway within an hour of the final whistle on Saturday.

Below is the result from the West Brom game, the player of the month table and the current player of the year table.
