James Wilson has paid tribute to the character of the Albion squad he has joined from Manchester United.

The striker signed on loan for the rest of the season brought the Seagulls back into the game with a solo goal on his full debut against Charlton at the Amex today.

They were 2-0 down early in the second half when Wilson struck and ended up winning 3-2 against Charlton's ten men.

Wilson told The Argus: "It was difficult with them going 2-0 up so early. Towards the end of the half we were just waiting for the break really to get some new ideas from the changing room and regroup at half-time.

"I think we did that well. We got the goal quite early, which was a great feeling for me on my starting debut, and we showed great character to go on and win the game.

"I could tell that in the changing room as soon as I walked into the club. The lads are all brilliant and they are all motivating each other. It's a brilliant club to come into and a great result today."

Wilson danced and jinked his way through the heart of the Charlton defence to get Albion back into the game.

He said: "They seemed to move out of the way. Even some of our players moved out the way!

"I just turned on the edge of the box and everything opened up. I managed to get my shot away at the end and it went through the keeper's legs. It was a great feeling."
