Burnley v Leeds United player ratings: James Tarkowski 4, Chris Wood 4; Jack Harrison 8, Rodrigo 9

Clarets put to the sword as Bielsa's side seal impressive 4-0 victory at Turf Moor

BURNLEY RATINGS: Bailey Peacock-Farrell - 5: Back in the starting XI due to Nick Pope’s shoulder problem and made good stop at his near post from Bamford 10 minutes in. No chance with first three goals but caught in no-man’s land for the fourth. Getty

Matthew Lowton - 6: Decent first half from right-back where he helped keep Harrison relatively quiet but the Leeds man started to run the show after break. Reuters

James Tarkowski - 4: Fell over Bamford’s leg to hand Leeds striker their first chance of match that was saved by Peacock-Farrell. Should have done more to close down Klich before Leeds’ opening goal. Excellent interception denied substitute Rodrigo free strike on goal but left for dead by same player for Leeds’ third. Shinned chance over bar when Burnley were already four down. Getty

Ben Mee - 5: Had been solid enough in first half and helped keep Bamford very quiet but he and Tarkowski lost their defensive shape as Leeds ran riot after break. Reuters

Charlie Taylor - 6: Surging run down left and decent ball into middle after 15 minutes. Fine recovery challenge to prevent Raphinha shooting at goal. One of Burnley's better players on bad day at office for Clarets. AFP

Josh Brownhill - 5: Curled early chance well wide of target. Guilty of some really poor distribution that helped starve Burnley’s attack of service. Getty

Jack Cork - 5: Almost got on end of McNeil’s free-kick at start of second half, via a couple of ricochets, but couldn’t quite stretch far enough to get decent touch on it. Midfielder left chasing shadows as Leeds took control of game. Reuters

Ashley Westwood - 5: Curled free-kick from dangerous position straight into hands of Meslier on stroke of half-time. Nice bit of skill to flick ball past Phillips just after break but then failed to trouble Meslier with looping strike on goal. Rightly booked for poor foul on Raphinha then proceeded to berate the Brazilian for some unknown reason. Close to being sent off in end as he completely lost his cool. AFP

Dwight McNeil - 6: At heart of Burnley's decent start to game and looked dangerous early on. Showed worth at other end of pitch with vital sliding tackle to deflect Dallas strike wide. Influence quickly waned and was bit-part player for rest of game. PA

Matej Vydra - 5: Disappointing first half as Burnley’s front two struggled with complete lack of service after promising first 10 minutes. Fought his way past two Leeds challenges to get through on goal 10 minutes after break but was denied by Meslier’s legs. Awful defensive header contributed to Leeds’ second. Getty

Chris Wood - 4: Big striker in fine form with five goals in his last three games but was non-existent as attacking threat against his former club, due to woeful service more than anything. Chipped a half chance wide of target just before the hour before being substituted. AFP

SUBS: Ashley Barnes – (On for Wood 59’) 5: Headed one chance wide – but score was 4-0 by that point. Reuters

Jay Rodriguez – (On for Vydra 59’) 5: Shot straight at Meslier when well placed. Failed to control fizzing Gudmundsson ball into box with goal at mercy in last minute. Getty

Johann Gudmundsson – (on for McNeil 70’) 5: Went close soon after coming on but saw shot saved by Meslier. Getty

LEEDS RATINGS: Illan Meslier - 7: Made a right mess of a clearance in opening 10 minutes but had nothing to do in first half bar easy save from Westwood free-kick. Called into proper action 10 minutes after break to stop Vydra effort with his legs and blocked another strike from Gudmundsson with 15 minutes to go. Reuters

Luke Ayling - 7: Leeds captain linked up well with Raphinha as Leeds regularly looked to attack down the right flank. Showed his frustration at the referee when a few decisions didn't go his way but generally in control at the back. AP

Diego Llorente - 8: Made a couple of vital interceptions in opening five minutes as Burnley started on front foot, then took a painful knee in the back from Tarkowski after 20 minutes. Returned to fray after treatment and curled over dangerous cross that forced Burnley to concede a corner. Spaniard looked top quality throughout in a really impressive defensive performance. AFP

Pascal Struijk - 7: Missed glorious opportunity to open scoring when he headed Phillips ball wide of target when totally unmarked but Dutch defender helped nullify the in-form Wood at other end of pitch. AFP

Ezgjan Alioski - 6: Left with his head in hands after a magnificently dreadful strike on goal from a Raphinha cutback just after half-hour mark that was hurtling towards the corner flag before the linesman's flag went up. Another poor shot was heading wide until it deflected off Harrison’s boot to make it 2-0. Involved in childish spat with McNeil that had Macedonian pulling faces at the Burnley man. Reuters

Kalvin Phillips - 9: Back to anchor the Leeds midfield and England player's passing display was on another level at times. Supplied inch-perfect ball into box for Struijk only for teammate to head wide. Sent over an unbelievable crossfield pass on half volley to put Harrison away down left in run-up to fourth goal. Only blot on copybook was yellow card for foul on Vydra. AFP

Raphinha - 7: Intriguing battle with Taylor down the right flank that saw both players get the upper hand at times. Saw one extravagant acrobatic attempt on goal in first half fly way off target. Frustrated at being substituted in last 10 minutes as he clearly wanted to get in on goalscoring action. PA

Stuart Dallas - 7: Blazed half-volley high and wide 15 minutes in. Helped Leeds take control of midfield after sticky start and dominate the game. AFP

Mateusz Klich - 7: Like rest of teammates, started slowly as Burnley controlled game in first quarter-of-an-hour. Helped Leeds take upper hand as pressure quickly swung other way. Magnificent curling finish into corner of net from edge of box to open scoring just before half-time. AP

Jack Harrison - 8: Some trademark probing runs in first half but was let down by final ball. Found his range after half-time, though. Enjoyed some good fortune when he cheekily flicked Alioski’s wayward strike into the net. Supplied the passes for both Rodrigo’s goals. Reuters

Patrick Bamford. - 5: Good sliding challenge in box followed by shot that forced first save of match out of Peacock-Farrell. His decoy run helped give Klich space to open scoring but Bamford's seven touches of the ball in the first half was the fewest of any player on pitch. Hooked before the hour and Leeds stepped up a gear when he came off. EPA

SUBS: Rodrigo – (On for Bamford 58’) 9: Thought he was going to score with first touch until Tarkowski intercepted - but delay was only temporary. Brilliant first touch past the Burnley centre-half followed by dinked finish to make it 3-0 after 77 minutes. Skipped round Peacock-Farrell and finished superbly for his second goal two minutes later. Getty

Tyler Roberts – (On for Klich 75’) 6: Shot straight at keeper when Rodrigo was better placed and looking for his third. Ian Poveda-Ocampo, above – (On for Raphinha 81’) N/A. Getty

Substitute Rodrigo scored twice as Leeds United  thrashed Burnley 4-0 at Turf Moor on Saturday.

Mateusz Klich put Marcelo Bielsa's side ahead on the stroke of half-time. Leeds punished Burnley after the break as Jack Harrison added a second before providing the two assists as Rodrigo came off the bench to bag a brace.

The Yorkshiremen now hold a four-point cushion over 11th-placed Aston Villa before Dean Smith's side head to Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Leeds had already passed up golden opportunities for Pascal Struijk and Stuart Dallas before getting their first a minute before the break.

Klich strode forward on a counter-attack and, when afforded time and space, the Polish midfielder picked his spot and bent the ball inside the post.

Burnley were 2-0 down before the hour mark as Harrison got a touch to flick Ezgjan Alioski's low shot into the net.

Moments before that goal, Patrick Bamford was replaced by Rodrigo and the Spain forward tore Burnley to shreds.

Rodrigo got his first in the 76th minute as his touch from Harrison's pass carried him beyond James Tarkowski and Ben Mee before a delightful dink lifted the ball over the advancing Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Burnley were still reeling from that when Leeds carved them open again, Phillips' superb pass finding Harrison who in turn fed Rodrigo, with the forward rounding the goalkeeper before slotting home.
