Charlie Taylor’s first goal for the club proved in vein as the home side fired back twice to condemn Vincent Kompany’s side to an eight defeat of the campaign.

Here’s how Burnley’s players rated:

Caught well off his line for the second and struggled to deal with the pressure from corners. Still managed to make some good saves.

Guilty for Bournemouth’s second, giving the ball away in a poor area as he stood in for the suspended Connor Roberts.

Made two or three important blocks and interceptions but also a little rash in other instances. Nodded back the header for Taylor’s goal.

Defended resolutely in the face of constant Bournemouth pressure, much of it aerial. Had to be careful after picking up a booking.
