Crystal Palace winger Thomas Ince has admitted that it will take time for him to adjust to life in the Premier League.

Ince, who joined the Eagles on loan from Blackpool in January, found the net on his top-fight debut as Palace beat West Bromwich Albion 3-1 on Saturday.

"It was a good debut," he told Sky Sports News. "It's a good league and I'm still a bit off as I've been in the Championship for the past couple of years.

"I've only had a week's training, so I still need to get used to what it's like to play in the Premier League, but it was nice to get a goal and an assist and most importantly the three points."

Stoke City, Cardiff City and Swansea City all tried to sign Ince before he eventually opted to join Palace.
