Promising debut for Roberts after frustrating wait for first Burnley start Lowton remains first choice but Sean Dyche was pleased with his new signing's debut. It was a mental knock on the manager's door
Wayne Hennessey - In doubt Saturday Hennessey is questionable for Saturday's matchup with Brentford with an undisclosed injury. Manager Sean Dyche told reporters, "Wayne (Hennessey) will probably be a doubt for the w...
Impact Hennessey's potential absence shouldn't be expected to impact the starting XI, as he was unlikely to unseat Nick Pope from the starting XI. If Hennessey does miss out Saturday, it figures to be Will Norris who serves as the emergency backup behind Pope.

Impact Pope was beaten by a Valentino Livramento header and a strike from Armando Broja on Saturday, but his side managed a draw thanks to Maxwel Cornet's brace.

Matej Vydra - Makes squad Saturday Vydra (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Southampton.
Impact Vydra is again an option after dealing with an unknown issue following the international break. It looks like Burnley are using a different formation again which doesn't use two forwards up front, something that could hurt Vydra's playing time going forward.

Charlie Taylor - Starting against Southampton Taylor (knock) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Southampton.
Impact Taylor is back in the XI Saturday after missing out last weekend because of a knock and now he takes the spot of Erik Pieters again. He had a ridiculous 12 crosses in his last start, something that'll be hard to bank on as an underdog against Southampton.

Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins invests in Premier League club
Three-time Pro Bowl safety Malcolm Jenkins spent his bye week building his portfolioOCTOBER 22, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Charlie Taylor - Status uncertain Taylor will be a game-time decision versus Southampton on Saturday.
Impact Prior to getting hurt, Taylor has started all seven matches for the club in which he recorded 31 crosses (five accurate), 18 interceptions and eight chances created. If cleared to play, the left-back should be a near-lock for the starting XI and would be a solid top-half fantasy option.

Matej Vydra - In doubt against Southampton Vydra (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's matchup with Southampton.
Impact Prior to getting hurt, Vydra has started the previous two matches for the club in which he recorded one assist, three shots (two on target) and two chances created. Still, the forward came off the bench in his other four appearances this year, so his spot in the starting XI, if deemed fully fit, should be considered tenuous at best.
OCTOBER 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ben Mee - Questionable Saturday Mee (COVID-19) is in doubt for Saturday's matchup with Southampton.
Impact Mee has missed the club's previous two contests after testing positive for COVID-19. Including a mid-week matchup with Tottenham, the club will be playing three games between this Saturday and the next, which likely will factor into whether to put Mee back into the starting XI versus Southampton. In his six appearances this year, all starts, Mee recorded one goal on seven shots (one on target), 20 clearances and nine interceptions.

Jay Rodriguez - Playing off bench Rodriguez has played 64 minutes off the bench the last two matches following his hamstring injury.
Impact Rodriguez appears to be healthy, but he's continuing in his bench role with Ashley Barnes and Matej Vydra also options to start. Still, none of them started the loss against Man City, so it'll continue to be a revolving door for Burnley this season.
OCTOBER 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Maxwel Cornet - Records two shots against City Cornet registered two shots (one on target), one cross (inaccurate) and one corner in 56 minutes fo action versus Manchester City on Saturday.
Impact Cornet was back in the starting XI after dealing with a hamstring injury. Various maladies have limited the attacking midfielder to just three starts this season and one appearance off the bench but if he can put his injury woes behind him, Cornet should be in the mix for regular minutes moving forward.

Ashley Barnes - Takes three shots against Man City Barnes took three shots (one on target) and made a clearance in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Manchester City.
Impact Barnes injected some urgency and danger to his side's attack when he was subbed into Saturday's match in the second half, but he couldn't inspire his team to a result against the defending Premier League champions. He has appeared in all eight of Burnley's Premier League matches this season (he has four starts), but is yet to score a goal. Next weekend is a clash against 15th-placed Southampton, which have conceded 10 times.

Impact McNeil was solid on both sides of the ball on Saturday, but it wasn't enough to earn a result against the defending Premier League champions Man City. He should have an easier time next weekend as his side continues its search for a first win of the season against 15th-placed Southampton.
OCTOBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ashley Westwood - Creates chance in loss Westwood made two interceptions and created a chance in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Manchester City.
Impact Westwood wasn't able to do too much against the defending Premier League champions Man City on Saturday, but he should have an easier time next weekend against 15th-placed Southampton.
OCTOBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
James Tarkowski - Makes seven clearances in loss Tarkowski made a block, seven clearances and an interception in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Manchester City. He also won two of two tackles in the match.
Impact Tarkowski was solid for much of Saturday's match, but he couldn't entirely prevent the defending champions from finding the net. His side are now winless in eight Premier League games this season, but he will want to turn that around next weekend against Southampton, which have scored just six goals.
