The former Tottenham Hotspur winger is reaping the rewards of moving to the Hawthorns as he scored twice in West Brom’s 4-2 win over West Ham United.

Now the star in the side, instead of one of many back at Spurs, the Belgium international is playing with freedom as he looks to force his way into new international manager Roberto Martinez’s plans after missing Euro 2016.

Chadli opened the scoring from the spot after eight minutes, sending Adrian the wrong way after new signing Arthur Masuaku was penalised for handball.

The 27-year-old then found Salomon Rondon in the area to put the Baggies two-nil up, before claiming another assists, this time for James McClean, as his shot was diverted home by the Republic of Ireland international.

Into the second-half and the one time Dutch KNVB Cup winner with FC Twente put Albion into an unassailable 4-0 lead as he converted into an empty net after he and Rondon had broken away from a Hammers’ corner.
