Chelsea player ratings: two ‘outstanding’ stars get 9/10 but one 5/10 in comfortable Burnley win

Chelsea secured back-to-back Premier League away wins for the first this year with a comfortable 4-1 win over Burnley.

Raheem Sterling was the star of the show as Chelsea thrashed Burnley 4-1 in the Premier League to crown off what has been a positive last two weeks at the club heading into the international break.

It was Burnley who took the lead in the game through Wilson Odobert after some really positive work from star man Lyle Foster, and Vincent Kompany’s side looked like they would give the Blues a game before an own goal at the end of the first half from Ameen Al-Dakhil levelled it for the Blues and turned the game on its head.

Raheem Sterling, returning to the starting line-up took matters into his own hands, first winning a penalty for Cole Palmer to score his first Chelsea goal and his first Premier League goal to put the Blues ahead for the first time in the game.

Sterling then scored with a confident finish to give his side a cushion before playing a part again in the goal that Nicolas Jackson scored to seal an impressive win.

Chelsea and Mauricio Pochettino had struggled for goals and wins before match day six but the win against Fulham on Monday night looked to have lifted moods and provided the desired platform to go on and build.

With so many star players in the team, here is how we rated the Chelsea players out there at Turf Moor.
