West Bromwich Albion boss Roberto di Matteo is delighted with the impact made by summer signing Nicky Shorey.

The former Aston Villa left-back has helped the Baggies pick up seven points from a possible nine.

"He's come in and taken his chance," Di Matteo told the WBA website.

"He's performed at a high level and has done very well for the club so far.

"He looks composed. We knew that. He's had years of experience in the Premier League."
