After beating Real Betis and then Arsenal, they are taking on Manchester United at the weekend.

Jones told The Anfield Wrap: “I was (worried about the injury) myself at first. I had a bit of a small knee issue, I had it for a few days.

“I’ve got the same thing now but it’s fine, we’ve had scans and stuff that show it’s not going to get worse, so I can just go and play.”

Jones continued: “My aim is obviously to come around the team, to play as well as I can, and to keep hold of the shirt. 

“I’m capable of that but I’ve got to prove that day after day, week after week, and game after game. So we’ll see.”
