David De Gea So Fergie has been proved right once again. The Spanish kid who had some dodgy moments (although that mistake at Tottenham was grossly exaggerated) has evolved in to the Premier League’s best goalkeeper. Only problem now is keeping hold of him when Real Madrid and Barcelona inevitably come calling. Rafael United’s most [...]
Phil Jones played a blinder at the Bernabeu against Real Madrid and kept Cristiano Ronaldo relatively quiet. Having done a similar job against Gareth Bale too, United fans were looking forward to see what he could do in the return leg. Unfortunately, Jones went flying in to a challenge against Reading in the Cup and [...]
Manchester United have produced more English talent for the national team than any other club but when looking at the younger players in the England squad you could argue they don’t match the ability of the so-called “golden generation”. When asked whether he thought there were enough good English players coming through, Michael Carrick sung [...]
Phil Jones received plenty of hype in his first season at United, with Sir Bobby Charlton likening him to Duncan Edwards and the press claiming he was the future England captain. Whilst last season he seemed to escape injury-free from crunching tackles, this season he has found himself injured repeatedly, following on from his predecessor [...]
Sir Alex Ferguson has today confirmed what we all feared, that Phil Jones, who turned 21 today, is unlikely to face Real Madrid in the second leg game. “Phil Jones is the one we’re concerned about in terms of the Real Madrid game,” he said. “We’re working hard on it and I’d say he has [...]
What is it about our #4 shirt? First we had the original Mr Glass, Owen Hargreaves, and now we have Phil Jones, who seems to get injured every other game. He was subbed off during our 2-1 victory over Reading in the FA Cup tonight and then left Old Trafford on crutches. Jones played a [...]
Phil Jones played his first game for United since the final day of last season against Sunderland. Whilst disappointed with the result, Jones was happy to get some playing time after such a lengthy period on the sidelines. “I’m knackered to be honest,” he admitted. “It wasn’t the best of pitches to play on either. [...]
Sir Alex Ferguson has today revealed that any issues with Rio Ferdinand over his refusal to where a Kick It Out t-shirt on Saturday have been resolved. “I always feel a union is stronger than an individual,” he added. “It’s important he airs his grievances to the right people, the FA.” Ferguson has also confirmed [...]
Football and social media can be more closely correlated than perhaps we realise. Whilst we don’t care so much what they say, the fact we now have the option to hear our idols has helped bridge the gap between fans and footballers like never before. Players from across the globe take to social network sites [...]
What have our players been doing since the season ended? Ryan Giggs was in Shanghai to help launch the partnership with Chevrolet David de Gea arrived in Switzerland with the Spain squad ahead of Euro 2012. Rafael da Silva trains ahead of his start for Brazil in their friendly against Argentina. Patrice Evra has a [...]
Hart, Green, Ruddy – Baines, Cahill, Cole, Johnson, Jones, Lescott, Terry – Barry, Downing, Gerrard, Lampard, Milner, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Parker, Walcott, Young – Carroll, Defoe, Rooney, Welbeck. Gerrard is England captain. “It was either Jones or Richards and I chose Jones,” said Hodgson.
Phil Jones is pleased with how his first season has gone with Manchester United, after playing in 40 games in all competitions. Only Wayne Rooney and Patrice Evra have played in more games than our youngster, who turned 20 a couple of months ago. “It’s gone really well,” Jones told the official site. “If anyone [...]
Micah Richards has claimed that Manchester United players get straight in to the England squad whilst players like him have to work twice as hard to get recognition from his country. “Had McClaren been still in charge, I would have had 60 caps by now,” said Richards. “McClaren believed in me and Capello believed in [...]
Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed that Phil Jones will be Manchester United’s captain one day. “He’s definitely a future captain,” said Ferguson. “There’s no doubt about that. I said that from the minute he came to us that I thought there was something about the boy. He was doing great until he started getting all [...]
