A new era at West Brom began in entertaining style as a 4-2 home win against West Ham helped ease speculation about Tony Pulis' future.
In the first game since Thursday's announcement that a takeover by Chinese group Yunyi Guokai Sports Development Limited - led by Guochuan Lai - had been completed, defeat might have left Pulis, with speculation surrounding his future prior to kick-off, on the brink.
During last weekend's defeat at Bournemouth Albion fans sang ``Tony Pulis, your football is s**t'' but no such criticism could be levelled on Saturday.
West Brom surged into a four-goal lead through Nacer Chadli, superb on his home debut, Salomon Rondon, James McClean and Chadli once more finding the target.
