'Van Gaal never believed in me' - Reborn Man Utd star Jones lauds Mourinho

The England international is enjoying life at Old Trafford once again after floundering during the regime of the veteran Dutch coach

Manchester United defender Phil Jones believes that he is thriving under Jose Mourinho after enduring a frustrating period working under former boss Louis van Gaal.

A knee injury disrupted Jones's season last term and he made just six Premier League starts, but he has become a more prominent figure under new manager Mourinho.

The England international explained that he has received a confidence boost from the Portuguese after not being deemed fit enough by Van Gaal.
