Man Utd defender Jones pleased with preseason progress

Manchester United defender Phil Jones says preseason is going well for the Premier League champs.

Jones believes the squad is building up nicely to the return of competitive football, against Wigan in the Community Shield on 11 August.

"We've been together four or five weeks now and had some really good training sessions," he said. "He [Moyes] has implemented what he wants us to do in training and games and we can already see things coming off in games. Come the start of the season we'll be ready to go and firing. A lot of the lads are excited."
