Sam Allardyce says Phil Jones has not fulfilled his potential at Manchester United, and says the England defender has not learned from his mistakes.Jones scored a comical own goal as United suffered a 2-1 defeat to Valencia in the Champions League on Wednesday to continue an unwanted strike record.

4“Jones, arguably the way he is looking, could be our best ever player. I think Jones may be one of the best players we have ever had, not matter where we play him. At 21 years of age, he is going to be a phenomenal player. I think he can play anywhere on the pitch. He has such a massive influence, with his instinct and reading of the game. He has a drive about him.”But fast-forward to the present, Jones is now little more than a squad player in the United ranks and has a reputation for calamity.And for good reason – when he put the ball into his own net on Wednesday night, Jones became the first United player to score an own goal in the Champions League since himself, in 2011.His strike record also makes for amusing reading Jones has scored two goals for United and two against them in the Premier League, and has the very same record in the Champions League.
