Lots of West Brom fans have taken to Twitter to shower Matheus Pereira with praise, after the forward lit up the Hawthorns on his first start for the club.

The Brazilian was signed on a season-long loan deal from Sporting Lisbon this summer and had made three substitute appearances before starting against Blackburn, where he dazzled spectators.

The 23-year-old recorded a game-high five key passes, was fouled a game-high five times and also took two shots as he managed to grab two assists on his first start for the Baggies, and the response to his performance have been glowing from the West Brom fans on Twitter.

One supporter said that he goes to work on Monday looking forward to seeing a player like Pereira perform at the weekend, whilst another said that the Brazilian is 'actually the next Ballon d'Or winner' - seems unlikely, but who knows?
