Thats an instant must-read at medical schools...
The club made a huge mistake no doubt, I'm sure Phil can't believe his luck. He's set for life financially.

I thought his contract is up this summer.I know his contracts up in 2024, but it feels wrong that he's holding onto number 4. Should be given to Varane in the summer.
up this summer with the option of another year.I thought his contract is up this summer.
I think we can safely say, We won’t be taking him up on that yearup this summer with the option of another year.
Defo not, be worried if Ole was still here we would be extending it. Surprised he isnt leaving the club this window to get some game time, unless hes done and just collecting the wage while he can.I think we can safely say, We won’t be taking him up on that year
Blooming heck, there's actually another year option too!?up this summer with the option of another year.
Was just thinking this.No chance of giving him the additional year if ETH has booted him out the squad. What the feck is he even doing now? Surely he can’t be injured so is he training with the academy boys? Is he just sitting at home? Don’t think I’ve even seen photos of him in training this season because it’d be a fairly big deal if it was, considering how he’s a meme for us.
Still when that day comes and he departs, I can’t wait to yell another ‘feck you Ed Woodward’ at the sky.
I’m gonna mention him all the time to you and remind you how he’s taken money off your kitchen tableHe's been stealing a living for years. Shameless.
I'd be embarrassed to show my face anywhere around the club if I was him.
I hope when he's gone, we never celebrate or mention his name again.
That’s what bothers me. He really should’ve given that number up. I have a lot of sympathies for his injuries. Jones always gave a 100%, and no matter what anyone says, he was a fantastic player but was absolutely decimated by injury. He could have been a world class CB if he’d stayed injury free. But the time for that was about 7-8 years ago. How he’s stayed at the club this long is simply remarkable. Quite a feat. That and rank incompetence at board room level. I’d love to see a total of how much he’s pulled down in wages the last five years, where his contribution has been so negligible as to be as close as dammit to zero.I know his contracts up in 2024, but it feels wrong that he's holding onto number 4. Should be given to Varane in the summer.
That would have been a perfect number for Varane.Is he still our number 4?! incredibly bizarre situation that'll surely never, ever be allowed to happen again.
It’s not ”close to zero”, it’s in the minus. Not only has he cost wages, he’s a constant cost for the medical team, physios etc.I’d love to see a total of how much he’s pulled down in wages the last five years, where his contribution has been so negligible as to be as close as dammit to zero.
He's still here isnt he? transfer window closes soon too. What's that?, 5m a year for doing nothing?
He has been here for 12 years, that must qualify him as a Man utd legend now.
It’s mad how Phil Jones has survived under like 6 managers and he’s still here getting paid for absolutely nothing. How has he not been released?! No one’s gonna buy him so we’ve just got to pay off his contract. Should never of been renewed.
I rarely have sympthy for footballers. After all the ones in the PL earn more per week than regular people do in a year.He's been stealing a living for years. Shameless.

That sounds extreme.. how could you possibly know this out of interest?I rarely have sympthy for footballers. After all the ones in the PL earn more per week than regular people do in a year.
However jones injury that kept him out for so long is a really bad one. When he gets into his 40s and beyond he wont be able to walk without being in excrucating pain never mind trying to run or jump.
Should have been medically retired by the club and he should also accept he needs to retire medically.
There was a article about his operation and his knee injury. The lateral and medial meniscus is gone completely. This layer is the padding between the bones of the bottom of the femur and the top of the fibula. Without it the bones grind against each other. It is supposed to be really really painful for everyday life never mind football.That sounds extreme.. how could you possibly know this out of interest?
And that’s doing something? I play a game every Sunday in Sunday league and get nothingDoing nothing? He's played 1322 minutes of football during that 5-year contract.
So roughly 14 1/2 games total if you add all the minutes together.
If he's showing up to training and doing what they ask of him then I don't see a problem. It's not like he controls whether or not he's in the matchday squad.He's been stealing a living for years. Shameless.

No idea how he can just hold onto it, it should have been taken off him if he's not going to be involved in the squad this year.I know his contracts up in 2024, but it feels wrong that he's holding onto number 4. Should be given to Varane in the summer.
Same here. Does anyone know if he still goes to Carrington on a daily basis for any kind of training?Wait now I'm genuinely curious, what is he actually doing?
