Jackson delighted for Baines over Everton success

Former Everton defender Matt Jackson is delighted to see Leighton Baines succeeding at Goodison Park.

Jackson played with Baines at Wigan Athletic and told BBC Radio Merseyside: "You only really get your fitness by playing ten games consecutively and he's now done that.

"He brings great attributes to the team and gives a real balance on the left."

Jackson added: "He's a great young professional and I'm delighted for him as a mate and as an Evertonian that he's doing so well in the team now."
