The Clarets were guilty of a lack of fight and purpose as they put to the sword by Mikel Arteta’s title challengers in emphatic fashion.
Very few of Vincent Kompany’s players came away with any sort of credit.
Here’s how Burnley’s players rated:
1. James Trafford - 5/10
Not necessarily at fault for any of the goals, but it’s another heavy, heavy defeat. At least he dived the right way for Saka’s penalty. Photo: Marc Atkins
2. Lorenz Assignon - 4/10
Struggled against Martinelli and conceded the penalty for Arsenal’s second. Perhaps there was no contact, but he didn’t need to commit himself. Photo: David Price
3. Dara O'Shea - 5/10
Not individually at fault for any of the five goals, but part of a defence that shipped five. Photo: ANDY BUCHANAN
4. Maxime Esteve - 5/10
Similar story to O'Shea. Brought off fairly early but Kompany could have hooked off any of his starting XI. Photo: Matt McNulty
