Just seen the Shawcross tackle on the weekly Premier League highlights show here. Difficult to see from first look what exactly happened, and of course it wasn't repeated, so I can't give much of my own personal opinion. However, the commentators here described it as (roughly translated) not a vicious / sinister foul, but rather a very hard challenge. Having said that, the tackling technique in the Bundesliga leaves a lot to be desired at times so I won't be taking their word for gospel.
Hope (and am sure) he'll make a fully recovery. Seems to be a great little player, with a lot of potential. Feel for Shawcross too. I guess that such incidents are unfortunately a part and parcel of contact sport. Thankfully he'll be in good hands and such injuries don't automatically signal the end of a career like they once may have.
