Taking the decision of concussion injuries out of the manager's hands could a way around it. The Premier League dispatch an independent medical delegate, qualified in neurology to each match whose call it is to make whether a player suffering a head injury should be allowed to continue or not. 

If the player says he’s feeling groggy after a blow to the head,I cannot imagine anyone qualified in neurology doing anything other than demanding the player leaves the pitch.

Then you need severe sanctions for anyone deliberately abusing it - see Dean Richards in rugby / Bloodgate. Also, TV footage would clearly show if the player didn’t receive a blow to the head. People will always try to take advantage of things by cheating but that’s not a reason not to take concussions etc. much more seriously than is currently the case

I agree football needs to take head injuries more seriously but a player,under orders from the manager,could easily make contact with an opposition players shoulder,with his head ,and go down holding his head. It would happen.

Some will, aye. But if it looks really contrived you’d imagine they’d get hammered. There’s not really any perfect solution which eliminates gamesmanship, cheating, whatever you want to call it. But I also don’t see that becoming much of a factor in many games. It’s certainly worth piloting some schemes that give the players more protection and takes the decision making out of the hands of those employed by the clubs

I agree with some of your views.Something needs to be done with a policy Arsenal especially have used for many years.Arsenal are defending and two of their defenders go for the same high ball,collide and stay down with head ‘injuries’ to get the game stopped.An independent head injury specialist could come on in that scenario and inform the ref that there’s nowt wrong with the cheating cockney bastards,with a mandatory yellow card produced for both players.
