Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez says he hopes to "return to the pitch soon" despite suffering a fractured skull in a horrific clash of heads with Arsenal defender David Luiz.

Jimenez tweeted from his hospital bed where he is under observation following an operation.

The 29-year-old Mexico international received 10 minutes of treatment on the pitch after the clash of heads in the first half of the Premier League match at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.

He was subsequently wheeled off the pitch and taken to a local hospital.

"Thanks for your support messages," he tweeted. "I will be under observation, and I hope to return to the pitch soon."

Wolves would go on to win the match 2-1, courtesy of goals from Daniel Podence and Pedro Neto.

Neto, 20, dedicated his goal and the win - Wolves first at Arsenal in 41 years - to his stricken teammate.

"I didn't see the impact, I only heard the impact, and it was very hard seeing him on the ground like that," said the Portuguese.

"It was shocking, but I hope that he is OK and that he can recover to come back with us.

"Seeing him unconscious on the floor was bad, but we had to try to focus 100 per cent on the game.

"We wanted to end the game, we wanted to win the game for him, and we wanted to get this victory for him, so I think the whole team would like to dedicate this win for him."

Gabriel, 7 - The soaring Gabriel produced a monstrous header to level the scores, but he was floored by the brilliance of Podence who restored his side’s lead. In fairness, the defender bounced back again though with a series of vital interventions to keep his side in the game. Reuters

Kieran Tierney 5 - It was a difficult night’s work for the normally classy full-back who struggled to contain the energy of Adama Traore and the trickery of Podence and failed to provide his side with any real attacking support on the left flank. Reuters

Joe Willock, 5 - I’m genuinely not sure if he touched the ball in the first-half. To his credit, he worked hard to try and get involved in the second but, despite asking the Wolves defence a couple of questions, he was unable to create anything of real significance. Reuters

________________________________

Whilst Jimenez went to hospital Luiz controversially played on with blood seeping from his head bandage until he was replaced at half time.

The decision reignited the debate about concussion protocols and whether football needs to follow rugby's example and allow temporary substitutes to be used while a player is properly assessed.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta defended the decision, saying the Brazilian only came off because he was concerned about the cut.

Common OCD symptoms and how they manifest

Checking: the obsession or thoughts focus on some harm coming from things not being as they should, which usually centre around the theme of safety. For example, the obsession is “the building will burn down”, therefore the compulsion is checking that the oven is switched off.

Contamination: the obsession is focused on the presence of germs, dirt or harmful bacteria and how this will impact the person and/or their loved ones. For example, the obsession is “the floor is dirty; me and my family will get sick and die”, the compulsion is repetitive cleaning.

Orderliness: the obsession is a fear of sitting with uncomfortable feelings, or to prevent harm coming to oneself or others. Objectively there appears to be no logical link between the obsession and compulsion. For example,” I won’t feel right if the jars aren’t lined up” or “harm will come to my family if I don’t line up all the jars”, so the compulsion is therefore lining up the jars.

Intrusive thoughts: the intrusive thought is usually highly distressing and repetitive. Common examples may include thoughts of perpetrating violence towards others, harming others, or questions over one’s character or deeds, usually in conflict with the person’s true values. An example would be: “I think I might hurt my family”, which in turn leads to the compulsion of avoiding social gatherings.

Hoarding: the intrusive thought is the overvaluing of objects or possessions, while the compulsion is stashing or hoarding these items and refusing to let them go. For example, “this newspaper may come in useful one day”, therefore, the compulsion is hoarding newspapers instead of discarding them the next day.
