All three of Robinson, Harper and Edwards were quick to react with messages of support for O’Shea following his injury setback and will all be keen to see him recover as soon as possible.

The verdict

This injury setback to O’Shea is undoubtedly a massive blow for West Brom considering that the 22-year-old has been amongst their best performers at the start of the campaign under Ismael.

The defender seems to have taken to life in Ismael’s back-three system perfectly and he seems naturally suited to the way in which the Baggies are playing this season. Whilst he has also proven that he will be a major threat for them from set-pieces this term as well.

Therefore, losing O’Shea for a prolonged period would be a massive blow for West Brom and with Matt Clarke also suffering some injury issues as well it will leave Ismael with a major headache at the moment.

O’Shea’s importance to the squad at West Brom is clearly not unnoticed by Robinson and also his ex-teammates in the shape of Harper and Edwards.

They will all be keen for him to recover as soon as possible so that he can help the Baggies continue their excellent start to the campaign.
