West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini was delighted with Samir Nasri's debut for their FA Cup win over Birmingham City.

Nasri impressed during an hour-long debut.

“I'm happy because we won the game and secondly because we won through to the fourth round of the FA Cup, we scored two goals, we kept a clean sheet, we gave minutes to Samir Nasri after so long, we played with two young players in Grady Diangana and Xande Silva and Andy Carroll scored, so it was all good news," Pellegrini confirmed.

“Nasri was another positive thing. He is a player whose performances will improve with every minute he plays because he is a top player."
