Man Utd defender Jones World Cup hopes on edge

Manchester United defender Phil Jones could be OUT of the World Cup after breaking down in victory over Hull City.

Jones was forced off against Hull City with a shoulder injury.

He went straight to hospital with his arm in a sling after being substituted off in the first half.

The defender - a regular in Roy Hodgson's England squads - looked in some discomfort after a collision with Hull defender Maynor Figueroa early in the first-half.

It was unclear immediately whether Jones's shoulder was dislocated, but if so, it would almost certainly rule him out of the World Cup starting in Brazil next month.
