Quotes from Phil Jones

People don't wake up one morning and say: 'I fancy being injured today.' It is just the way it is.

Being at United in my first season has really given me an insight into the passion and drive the club has.

I am not one who needs to be patted on the back every single day and told I am brilliant. Some players need that, I don't.

When I was younger you think you know it all and after games you probably just go for some food or sit on your PlayStation. Now I take it a lot more seriously and recover properly because I know I need to give myself the best possible chance to be as fresh and as fit as I can for the next game.

Success for Manchester United is winning the Premier League, adding another trophy and having another good cup run is another one.

I would never have dreamed of being able to lift the Premier League trophy.

I'm lucky, I'm lucky enough that I am strong mentally.

I've said all along from day one centre-back is the position I feel most comfortable in but if I'm asked to play right-back or midfield I'll go and do a job there.

Playing in midfield is a different ball game. You have to be on the half-turn all the time, have a different picture in your head of what is behind you and in front of you. Playing at right-back is different again.

I have said from day one I see myself as a center back. But, if I am asked to play in midfield or at right-back, I am happy to do so.

When I was switching around in my early stages, people underestimated how difficult it was just to go from playing centre midfield to right-back to centre-back to right-back to centre midfield.

Consistency is key in any sport and it's no different here.

People criticising does spur you on. You are always going to get critics.

You always get that buzz, that feeling of shivers down the back of your neck every time you walk out at Old Trafford or anywhere.

I want to stop goals going in the net.

It's the striker's job to put the ball in the net and it's up to us to make important tackles and blocks.

My mates will tell me they saw me in the newspaper linked to this club and that club, but to be honest it goes in one ear and out the other.

We have 25 or so years invested in the work. Why should I make the data available to you, when your aim is to try to find something wrong with it.

The thing that's stood out since I've joined United is the desire to win every single game. It means everything to win at this club. I'm just glad to be a part of it.

One minute you can be the blue-eyed boy and the next match you can be slated.

Those 12 o'clock kick-offs can be good if you win as then you've got the rest of the day to celebrate and enjoy it. On the other hand, if you lose, it's not a nice feeling. You spend the rest of the day mithering about the game and going over it in your mind for the next eight hours.

Having more money allows you to play in a certain way, but that's the beauty of the Premier League - there are so many different styles.

One of my strong points is that, no matter what anyone says about me, it will not affect me, it's because I believe in my ability and what I can achieve.

We're Man United, of course, we're going to be interested in the best players in the world, I'd be pretty amazed if we weren't.
