Phil Jones shows off stitches on way to Man Utd training after gruesome injury in West Ham win
It was blood, sweat and tears for the centre-back as the Red Devils snatched three points at Old Trafford on Saturday
MANCHESTER UNITED defender Phil Jones showed off his battle scars as he arrived in Carrington on Sunday morning.
The centre-back suffered a gruesome head injury after a collision with Declan Rice in the 2-1 victory over West Ham and needed stitches.
Knowing that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men are entering a hectic end to the season, Jones literally left it all out on the pitch on Saturday night.
Blood was pouring down his face after he suffered a nasty head injury from Rice's blow, which landed just above his eyebrow.
After the ball was put out for a throw-in, physios rushed to offer treatment to the defender.
Jones was able to complete the game, but had to don a head bandage until the final whistle.
And on Sunday he showed off a Frankenstein-like mark on his forehead while arriving at United's training ground.
