The pair were both signed by the Baggies over the summer.

West Bromwich Albion head coach Tony Pulis has explained that he has been pleased with how both Nacer Chadli and Allan Nyom have settled in at the Hawthorns, and suggested that the former is already held in high regard by his teammates, the Daily Mirror reports.

The pair were both brought in from Premier League rivals over the summer. And while a report in the Express in early September claimed that Tony Pulis was considering his future after being left frustrated with the Baggies’ dealings during the window, he has now hinted that the duo have won him, and the rest of the squad, over.

“I’m pleased with the way they have settled though,” he said, as reported by the Mirror.

“Chadli is a good player and has the respect of the rest of the group straight away. Allan played well at Stoke and has mixed in really well. When you bring new players in there is always the worry they won’t mix or it doesn’t run smoothly.

“It is a nice tight group now, and it is lovely to have a group who want to work together.”

While Nyom has only just found his way into the first-team following his move, Chadli has already been able to make a major impression during his short time with the club.

General view before the match

The Belgian has scored twice and also contributed two assists to help the side move themselves into the top half of the table after six games.

And if the pair can continue to make an impact in games, then it seems likely that they will soon be held in even higher regard by the rest of the squad.
