Swansea City survived wave after wave of Burnley pressure to beat the Clarets 1-0 at the Liberty Stadium this afternoon.
Nathan Dyer marked his 100th Premier League appearance for the club in match-winning style, slotting past Tom Heaton on 23 minutes.
Sean Dyche's side threw the kitchen sink at their Welsh counterparts in a bid to level matters, but the Swans held on.
Here, Sports Mole takes a look at who excelled and who should have stayed in the changing rooms.

Goal
Lukasz Fabianski: Stellar performance from the Pole, who pulled off a fantastic save to deny David Jones midway through the second half. His athleticism and assuring presence played a big role in the win. (9/10)
Defence
Angel Rangel: Struggled in the first half as much of Burnley's attack stemmed from his flank, but enjoyed a stronger second half. (6/10)
Ashley Williams: Solid performance from the skipper, who produced a crucial block to deny Lukas Jutkiewicz in the second half. (8/10)
Jordi Amat: Formed a formidable partnership with Williams in a centre-back pairing which can take great credit for today's win. (8/10)
Neil Taylor: Produced a strong display on the left of defence, restricting the adventurous Kieran Trippier from venturing too far forward.(7/10)
Midfield
Jonjo Shelvey: Enjoyed a strong first half but, like Swansea themselves, dipped in the second half. Few bright moments. (6/10)
Sung-Yeung Ki: A quieter display from Ki compared to his performance at Old Trafford last week. (6/10)
Nathan Dyer: The match winner was a bright spark throughout a lively 45 minutes, but failed to sustain that in the second half. (7/10)
Gylfi Sigurdsson: Missed perhaps the game's best chance in the first half, but played a wonderful assist to Dyer for the opener.(7/10)
Attack
Wayne Routledge: Energetic first-half display, giving Trippier a torrid time with his pace but, as with Dyer, faded badly in the second half. (6/10)
Wilfried Bony: Swansea's best player in the first half and would have headed them into an early lead if not for Jason Shackell's goal-line clearance. Isolated in second half.(6/10)
Substitutes
Jefferson Montero: Ineffective on his home debut after replacing Dyer on 66 minutes. (5/10)
Bafitembi Gomis: Anonymous display from the striker, who found himself isolated as Swansea's focal point after coming on for Bony. (4/10)

Goal
Tom Heaton: Had little to do in the second-half by virtue of Burnley's dominance, but produced a crucial save to deny Sigurdsson in the first half. (7/10)
Defence
Kieran Trippier: Struggled to deal with energetic Routledge, before enjoying a much quieter second half. (6/10)
Michael Duff: The Burnley veteran marked his 500th senior league appearance with a solid performance in the heart of Burnley's defence. (7/10)
Jason Shackell: Produced a goal-saving intervention at the start of both halves to deny the hosts. Excellent performance. (8/10)
Ben Mee: One of Burnley's best players in the first half, constantly asking questions of Rangel down the right-hand flank. (6/10)
Midfield
Scott Arfield: Left his shooting boots at Turf Moor as the midfielder missed one of Burnley's best chances to draw level in the second half. (5/10)
Dean Marney: Commanding presence at the heart of the midfield, stifling Swansea throughout the second half, allowing the visitors to rebuild broken attacks. (7/10)
David Jones: Should have done better when Fabianski palmed his low shot out for a corner midway through the second half. (5/10)
Matthew Taylor: Replaced by Ross Wallace on 72 minutes. Should have happened sooner. (5/10)
Attack
Danny Ings: Displayed promising signs that he can make the step up in class to the Premier League, but lacked the service to open his top-flight account. (6/10)
Lukas Jutkiewicz Spurned a gilt-edged chance to level matters after heading over the bar from close range. Big miss. Exuberant display other than that. (5/10)
Substitutes
Ross Wallace: Replaced Matt Taylor and gave Neil Taylor some problems by producing a series of inviting crosses into the area (7/10)
Ashley Barnes: Had to wait until the dying moments before getting a chance, but volleyed high and wide in Burnley's last attack. (5/10)
