The West Bromwich Albion striker has begun life at the Hawthorns in fine form.
West Brom centre-back Kyle Bartley spoke to reporters about the quality of his teammate Dwight Gayle, labelling the on-loan hitman as ‘immense’ and ‘brilliant’, as quoted by Birmingham Live.
Gayle, 27, joined the Baggies from Newcastle on a season-long loan in the summer, and he has already made a big impact at the Hawthorns, scoring three goals in five Championship outings.
Many are predicting that West Brom will gain promotion back to the Premier League this season, and having someone with Gayle’s goalscoring nouse will surely help them do just that.
Bartley, who joined the Baggies from Swansea in the summer, raved about the quality of Gayle, predicting that he will score loads of goals for the Black Country outfit this season, as quoted by Birmingham Live:
“Dwight is a proven goalscorer and he is always going to get you goals and his work-rate off the ball is also immense. He is brilliant, he is going to get lots of goals this year. We’ve just got to make sure he stays fit and keeps putting them in the back of the net for us.”
Next up for West Brom is a trip to St Andrews to take on Birmingham City after the international break, and Gayle will be looking to continue his fine form by firing his side to another three points.
