Reece James the star and the three other Chelsea players fans are raving about from Burnley win

It was a good weekend for Chelsea as they consolidated their place in the top four with an impressive showing against Burnley.

The Blues brushed aside Burnley 3-0 at Stamford Bridge, with Jorginho, Tammy Abraham and Callum Hudson-Odoi on target for Frank Lampard's men as they returned to winning ways in west London, after three defeats in their last four games in SW6.

But it was not one of the scorers who stood out for Chelsea fans, with Blues supporters rating full-back Reece James as the top-performing player against the Clarets.

Chelsea fans have been having their say on the performances in the victory, with supporters using our interactive widget on football.london to rate the players.

And James came out on top with an average rating of 8.9, after he impressed at right-back, with the 20-year-old providing an assist and creating more chances than any other Chelsea player on the day, with three.

James has earned plenty of praise for his performance, with former Tottenham forward Garth Crooks including the Chelsea defender in his team of the week, while Lampard also hailed the Englishman's display.

Hudson-Odoi and Willian both also scored highly, with both given an average rating of 8.1 from the fans, while Abraham also received an average rating of 8.0 from supporters.

On the whole, it was a positive day for the Chelsea players, with only goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga and midfielder Mason Mount failing to get a rating of more than seven from supporters, with both receiving an average rating of 6.9.

Jorginho was the fifth highest in terms of his average rating (7.7), with Antonio Rudiger (7.5), Cesar Azpilicueta (7.4), Ross Barkley (7.2) and Andreas Christensen (7.1) also rated highly by supporters.
