Jones: I joined Man Utd to win trophies

Phil Jones admits seeing Manchester United celebrating the title on Blackburn Rovers' home turf convinced him about moving to Old Trafford.

Jones was desperate to taste title glory.

"That is exactly why I left," he said.

"I had some fond memories from my time at Blackburn and there are some wonderful people at the club.

"But I wanted to win trophies and become part of a team with a massive background, which United have.

"To lift that trophy at the end of the season would be a wonderful achievement for me."
