Phil Jones desperate to add goals

Manchester United defender Phil Jones has admitted that he would like to improve his scoring record quickly at Old Trafford.

Jones is yet to find the target for United this season, despite often playing further forward in a central midfield role.

After spurning two headed chances in the 1-1 draw with Arsenal today, Jones has admitted that composure in front of goal is an area he must work on.

He told MUTV: "The first one [header] was easier, I think I should have put that one away.

"The second chance was a bit more difficult. If it had been in the air for a couple more seconds, I might have got on the end of it with a cleaner connection.

"Scoring goals is probably something I need to work on. Hopefully I can get one before the end of the season."

The 21-year-old has made 21 appearances for the Premier League winners in all competitions this season.
