Ben Foster faces at least four weeks on the sidelines
It's rotten news for Ben because he's been so consistent
Tony Pulis
The England stopper was taken off during Saturday's 1-0 win over Stoke and scans have revealed damaged cartilage.
Myhill replaced Foster on Saturday and will deputise while 20-year-old rookie Jack Rose will provide back-up to the former Wales international.
"It's rotten news for Ben because he's been so consistent," Baggies boss Tony Pulis said.

Boaz Myhill will deputise in Ben Foster's absence
"He kept seven clean sheets in 10 games but we have a very able man to step forward in Boaz (Myhill), who has performed well when he's come into the team.
"We've got the international break coming up which I hope will give our medical team the chance to work on Ben's rehab and we will reassess later."
Foster could miss the majority of the Baggies' final run-in - starting at Manchester City on Saturday - and they currently sit eight points above the bottom three.
