Bonkers how the medical staff have given the thumbs up that he is able to continue
Hope Jimenez is fine as it looked a pure nasty collision
How can the doc clear Luiz to keep playing after that hit ? Even if he's the one giving it and was more "prepared" for the impact, he should get subbed out immediately...
It’s very worrying
Hope Raul is okay, must have fractured his skull or something, pity because he is such a good header of the ball hope it doesn’t seriously affect him..
Think they'll be introducing them in the FA Cup.
Because managers would take the piss
I mean come on!!! Wolves should have been able to replace Jimenez and still have 3 subs remaining.
Insanity
Honestly going to keep Jimenez in my prayers until further news. That one looked bad. 13 minute delay and he’s still out cold. The horrid sound as well, topped up with his manager looking distraught. Hope for the best.
That’s put a downer on my entire evening. Jimenez looked limp the entire time down on the ground and that worries me, I really really hope he’s okay.
Can’t even get myself to care about the game anymore.
Also in disbelief like the rest of you that Luiz has somehow got the authority in a situation like this to decide he wants to stay on. What a mess.

Luiz still on the pitch!?!
That sound when they collided!?!?

How? Fake an injury of a serious nature to get a sub on? The period that player would have to be out negates any advantage they think they may get.
On another note, Arsenal medics should be vehemently reprimanded at the least and fired at the most for clearing Luiz to carry on.
Course they should, all the stuff about dementia and heading the ball, at least a sub for concussion should have been implemented ages ago.
Sounded like 5 Mike Tysons hitting a slab of beef
Arsenal really need to get Luiz off before he does anything stupid. Also, he might be concussed or something.
Dangerous to keep Luiz on the pitch if he does have a concussion a double concussion could kill him..
Jimenez gone straight to hospital. Hope he is alright.
NFL takes 10-15 mins and the players rarely come back on.
Jesus, not watching the match but that sounds awful. Hope he is ok
It wouldn't be up to the managers, it would be up to the doctors. Who have sworn an oath with regards to this sort of thing and therefore would get struck off if they faked it.
They aren’t mutually exclusive
I believe a rugby doctor (a female iirc) got struck off a few years back for exactly that sort of thing.
This is surprisingly accurate
Apparently they're going to be trialing that in the FA cup. Don't really understand why it's not already being allowed.

come on; it would be the easiest think to manipulate...
swore an oath? Who do you think pays them? They’re not on the Nhs.
Get in Wolves 1-0 
1 nill Wolves
Wolves leading through Neto.
Hehe.
Get in
That'll doo neto
Clearly if you've used 3 subs and someone gets an injury, some managers would consider faking a concussion (which doesn't have to be as terrible looking as Jiminez's situation) to avoid playing with ten.
Horrifying. Instantly reminding me of the Ryan Mason injury.
ARSE TV will be going mental. Blaming Luiz and Arteta
If you go off with concussion think it is then ten days or more out of the team. Not sure a manager would risk losing one of his players for nothing.
Arsenal have nothing going for them.
He's done it
Arsenal are a really bad, bad team. Genuinely one of the worst teams in the league after the usual candidates of Sheffield United, Fulham and West Brom. Fitting that we of course lost to them.
