Jones: Man Utd pair Rooney, Van Persie were unplayable

Phil Jones hailed Manchester United teammates Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie after victory at Fulham.

Jones played in midfield for the 3-1 win.

"In the first half they were unplayable," said Jones, who was preferred in midfield to Marouane Fellaini. "They were linking up so well. No-one can play against players like that on that kind of form. It just goes to show they are top, top players.

"We could have been five or six up at half time. We should have been, really. It was a bit sloppy second half, but we got the points and that's what you need to keep doing. It's a results business."
