West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis was delighted with four-goal Saido Berahino in their 7-0 FA Cup rout of Gateshead.

It was Pulis' first game after being appointed as head coach at The Hawthorns on Thursday.

Technical director Terry Burton has admitted Albion could sell Berahino in January but the club have so far had no offers for their star.

He took his tally to 13 for the season and Pulis is eager to get to know the hotshot after the third round win.

"The kid is a very talented lad, with great ability and obviously he scores and I am looking forward to working with him," he said.

"I haven't trained with him so I've got that to come but he looks a very talented boy.

"I hope he keeps reading the headlines if he scores four every week.

"Someone said he didn't celebrate but it was lovely to see all the lads go over when we scored a goal as that showed the unity we'll need."
