Graham Dorrans is happy with his progress at West Brom this season.
"I came down here knowing I wasn't going to get straight into the first team," said last season's PFA Scottish League One Player of the Year.
"Coming from the Scottish First Division, I knew I wasn't going to walk straight into a Premier League side.
"I have just worked hard in training with the fitness coach and that's paying off.
"I've got my chance now. Hopefully, I can take it."
Dorrans also told WBA's website: "The gaffer told me on the morning of the City game I was on the bench and it was nice to get a game.
"Making my first-team debut in this league was incredible.
"It's the best league in the world and is where I want to play."
