Boss Dean Smith today hailed "fantastic" Mat Sadler and insisted Walsall are lucky to have him.

The left-back has impressed since his free transfer from Watford over the summer.

Former Birmingham defender Sadler spent last season on loan at League Two Shrewsbury and Smith insisted the Saddlers have landed a gem.

"He's a very good defender and we're thankful to have him," he said.

"Mat is Mr Reliable for us. He's solid, dependable and gets forward. He knows the game, is intelligent and has a fantastic attitude.

"The players I was looking to bring in needed to be of the right quality. In Adam Chambers and Mat Sadler we have two."
