The signing of Callum Robinson has been a major boost to West Brom’s attack in recent weeks, yet the Republic of Ireland impressive form has brought up an interesting problem for Slaven Bilic’s side.
There’s a real issue growing (a good one) how does Diangana get back in? Splitting the trio of Robinson Pereria and Krovinovic up seems harsh at present/Kanu form has been encouraging so it’s a sticky conundrum easiest one would be to drop Kanu for Robinson but still harsh #wba

The 25-year-old striker has formed a good relationship with Hal Robson-Kane and Matheus Pereira in a new-look attacking front three for the Baggies, but with Grady Diangana set to return from injury in the upcoming weeks, decisions will need to be made as to who will lead the frontline and what Bilic does to ensure his best attackers all fit in the same system.
Do you want to sign Callum Robinson permanently?
Yes
No
And this is an issue that some West Brom fans on social media have brought into light, with Diangana being one of the club’s most prolific players as stats from WhoScored show and a name that deserves to be in the starting XI.
Here’s what a few Albion supporters had to say about Bilic’s conundrum on Twitter…
What a problem to have though eh!

Very simple really he’s on the bench and as to wait for is chance again even though he’s brill remember at start of season he used to come on second half and make a impact can do this again what a brilliant headache to have him coming in last 1/2 hour boing ! boing !

Diangana is too good not to go back into the squad mate. When Gibbs and Diangana come back down that Left we will be unbeatable in this league imo.

Easy, Grady, Peiera, Robinson

I think Bilic will stick with that 4 until either our form dips again or dye to injury. All good, as it means Diangana will be given time to get properly fit this time.

Grady has to come back in. He’s to good to miss out. I’d think about dropping sawyers and playing Krov abit deeper. Move Pereira back central and bring Grady in..

West Brom fans will be hoping the return of Diangana can help the club get over the line for the race for automatic promotion in the Championship.
