Phil Jones was in awe of Juan Mata after he influenced Manchester United to a dramatic victory over Liverpool on Sunday.
Spanish midfielder Mata scored two lovely goals as the Red Devils saluted 2-1 at Anfield and his performance was certainly not lost on defender Jones.
After the match, Jones posed with Mata on the team coach with some kind words of praise to accompany the picture.
Great result today! This man was unbelievable! #MUFCpic.twitter.com/fcmZ1go4bR

Mata scored in the 14th and 59th minutes to give United a two-goal lead before Daniel Sturridge pulled one back with just over 20 minutes remaining.
