Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney sustained a nasty head injury (speculated to be a three-inch cut) in a training ground accident when he collided with team mate Phil Jones’ studs at Carrington and stitches were required to stop it from bleeding.

And his England colleague Theo Walcott went on to describe it as like something out of a horror film and although it isn’t exactly crystal clear, a picture of the gash has emerged and it doesn’t look too pretty.
Here are some of the pictures:
