Martin Jol describes Dimitar Berbatov as "different class" after the striker scores twice on his home debut to give Fulham a 3-0 win against West Brom.

Fulham manager Martin Jol has heaped praise on Dimitar Berbatov after the striker scored two goals on his home debut for the club.

The Bulgarian opened his account following his move from Manchester United to give the Cottagers a 3-0 win over West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.

"I was ever so pleased. There is space for optimism because Berbatov is a top, top striker," Jol told BBC Sport.

"He wants to play his football - he's 31 now. He played in midfield, won the ball back, was at the back heading balls way from our box - he was different class. Today, he was almost the complete footballer."

The victory has lifted Fulham up to eighth in the Premier League table.
