Terry Butcher warns David Luiz and modern stars over concussions - 'Don't be like me!'
“But it is still the wrong thing to do. What if he gets a blood clot? That’s why there are protocols in place and the medical staff have to be the ones to decide.”

He said: “At training two days later, manager Graeme Souness, left, looked at cut and said, ‘Well done, but you’re playing tomorrow’.
“I felt really sleepy and went home to bed at 2pm. I slept till 10am the following morning.
“I got up, played, and beat Aberdeen. Now realise how stupid I had been. When your head meets a hard object you get brain trauma – the brain rattles around.
