On-loan Benfica midfielder Hassan Yebda believes he's now settling in at Portsmouth.

With eight games already under his belt following his move from Lisbon's Stadium of Light, Yebda has adapted to life in England with relative ease.

"I saw everything when I was in Lisbon or in Paris," he told The News. "Everyone knows the Premier League. It is different, it's very difficult.

"The intensity is a lot different. It is very different because sometimes in Portugal, we stop the ball and play slowly, but here everything is quick. It's not too hard to adopt. It's difficult, but not too hard."

Yebda also insists he has seen enough during his time on the south coast to know Pompey are good enough to pull themselves out of the relegation zone.

"I believe we are good enough," he said.

"We have the team and the players like Kevin Boateng, Younes Kaboul and Nadir Belhadj. There are a lot of players, so we have a good team to get out of the relegation zone.
