    Does anyone else think Peter Cech should not be allowed to continue wearing his skull cap

    Either his head is better or it's not at this stage - so he shouldn't still need to wear it

    Also when compared to another goalie -

    imagine a striker going for a ball with a goalie in contention - surely when a striker sees the cap he will compensate whereas with a normal keeper he wouldn't - thus giving cech an unfair advantage

    Is this a Men's Health issue ... or a soccer issue ?

    It's not there to keep his head getting better.
    He wears it to (hopefully) prevent something like that happening again.
    I can't see what the problem is and I doubt most strikers in the spur of the moment have time to consider challenging for a ball with him over another keeper because he's wearing a skull cap.

    I would follow through on a ball regardless if a goal keeper was wearing a helmet thingy or not. Id think about him after I scored the goal.

    Because he suffered a head injury, and if he got injured again he could get brain damage and die. Thought that would have been fairly obvious tbh.
