West Bromwich Albion's Jimmy-Jay Morgan has been named EA Sports FC Young Player of the Month for August following his outstanding start to life at The Hawthorns.

The 20-year-old completed a permanant move to the Baggies from Premier League side Chelsea after enjoying a stellar season on loan at Peterborough United in League One last season.

He's hit the ground running, with two goals and two assists in his first three Championship games, to add to a brace in the Carabao Cup, has made him a favourite already with the West Brom fans.

A naturally intelligent young player, Morgan has adapted his game as he has moved up the levels.

Tall and powerful, he is equally adept at playing as the furthest forward striker or as a number 10. He possesses vision and explosive pace over ten yards which allows him to cope with attempts to disrupt his rhythm and has quickly formed an instinctive partnership with Isaac Price at West Brom.

His quick feet were seen as he danced through the Norwich defence to score the winner, while as a target man he headed the equaliser at Middlesbrough.

"It's really nice to win this award and get noticed for the work I'm doing," Morgan said.

"I'm in a state of mind at the minute where I'm disappointed coming away from games if I haven't scored.

"I'm going into every game expecting to score, assist or create chances for the team, and it's probably justice to the rest of the team, to be honest. They create the chances that I'm able to put away.

"I like to think I'm quite a versatile player. I think I drift into different spaces during games and try to create space for other people as well. But obviously, my trade is to score goals, so I also know that I've got to arrive in the box at the right times."
