Isn't this really just down to injuries though and not being able to sign a central defender in the summer? He had been frozen out for a couple of months at least until Lindelof got injured.
So how many own goals has this chap scored for us? He must be on double digits by now. 
He should have been sold by Van Gaal. It beats me how he's managed to hang on at United all this time.
You what? I pissed myself laughing. We are a circus after all.
Yup unsure how he has survived for so long. Probably because (and this is the case for others too) he can put in some solid 7/8 out of 10 performances for a few games in a row and stay injury free and then we all think yeah he's not a bad player afterall but then you know there is a nightmare performance that comes sooner or later and we all remember.
That had me in fits too. The look on his face just afterwards was priceless. Stan Laurel reincarnated.
He was asking for a foul
The most moronic thing is, he did the same thing in the first half and the ref didn’t give it, the Valencia attacker continued playing while this idiot was on the ground with his arms in the air.
He shouldn’t get another game in a United shirt, fecking clown.
I swear he does this every game. I wholeheartedly believe he thinks he is smart to do it as if it is a good tactic for a defender to try to construct soft fouls in dangerous positions. The weirdest thing is he doesn't even shout at the ref after doing these things. The beautiful header in our goal when he got pushed against Spurs is another example of him going with instructing the spectacular foul in the exact moment of some important defending. I'm sure even in the last game against Fulham he expected to get a freekick when he went flying against Mitrovic.He was asking for a foul

Please leave you cnut, take you millions with you.
It's not even deja vu at this stage. It's the Phil Jones cycle, play ok a few games, embarrass himself get injured for a while and repeat. Smalling has his own cycle too, it aint potential anymore. It's an average player that can't be relied on who is never going to be top standard. You don't need to have a 11 world class players but there should be a trajectory of growth, United have a pool of players going nowhere. Jones, Smalling, Darmian, Young, Valencia and Rojo. That's a big group in a backline that shouldn't be here. All mid table players hence why we are so far down. Rather them all out the door and bring a good new crop in.
No need to call him a cnut...
Fine finish Philly!
He's a donkey and has been one for years, injury prone too. Our current centre-backs would be playing for the likes of Crystal Palace and Burnley if Woodward had any footballing sense, the fact he went against Mourinho's request for a centre-back tells me he doesn't.
Can't believe theres talk about extending his contract.
He did get Lindelof and Bailly because Mourinho wanted other centrebacks...
If we extend his contract we're finished as any kind of serious club.
Maybe i'm alone here but his stupid header for the 1st was worse than the own goal......the mistake for the 1st goal was just brainless and has shown Championship level defending of him.
Sir alex got absolutely wrong on this one.
Knowing us we will probably extend his contract.
We sold Blind, loaned Tuanzebe, and kept this clown? The state of this club.
We already gave Rojo a 4 year contract while injured. So it wouldn't surprise me if Jones bags a new contract after being half decent in a couple of games.
Twere a finish the great Duncan Edwards would've been proud of.
Absolute fecking joke, the buck stops with Mourinho.
Brilliant goal today. If the rest of our players can show this kind of goal instinct we wouldn't be sitting just barely above 0 GD.
And your point is?
I’ve seen possibly the best defender I’ve ever witnessed in Maldini score an even better own goal. It happens deal with it.
The root of the problem isn't Phil Jones, it's who employs him. He has been a walking disaster for years now and everyone knows it.
Once the glazers took over saf never really made a record breaking signing again like Rio or Rooney.
He seemed to be more focused on getting a good deal.
Rvp didn't follow that pattern but he was a special case.
True, but he dint really need to, also he himself was not comfortable with overspending. Though carrick and berbatov were decent signings in that period.
I feel bad for him, because you can see how he really tries but he simply not good enough. For his own good and our own I hope he goes on the summer.
Keeping him was all down to him?
Rumours are Ed wants to keep him along with Mike.
There should be riots if we extend his contract. What kind of feckery is that?
No, playing him was..
None of them are good enough. Jose is the one who asked for a CB. Unbelievable how everything will be used against Jose.
I know Jones is going to take a lot a sh*t for the own goal, but I have been a keeper my entire life and as a keeper when your defender is goal side of the attacker you DON'T come off your line. Sure, Jones "should" have cleared it, but "if" Romero doesn't come off his line it's a simple pass back. There was a definite lack of communication there from Romero yet Jones is taking all the flack. And if you want to know why you don't come off your line in that situation, all you have to do is look at the goal. All a player needs is a slight tough to get past the keeper. Let your defender do their work, and if Romero stays on the line like he should have, it's a simple pass back and boot up the field. And by the way, I'm a big Romero fan and think he should be our #1 "if" De Gea leaves, but for me, he takes more of the blame for that goal than Jones does...
He didn't play that much at all this year. Who would you play yesterday, given the injuries.
Chelsea away last season he scored an own goal but the referee ruled it out as a foul, great job that was Phil, genius.
I know you like to defend Mourinho, but if they aren't good enough then who is to blame for Lindelof and Bailly? Jones has made a catalogue of errors and cost us a cup final but still makes it into the team when he is fit.
