#3 Phil Jones (Centre-back)
Phil Jones has been the Premier League's most targeted player with his funny facial expressions, improbable approach to defending and tendency to slide around on his knees instead of staying on his feet.
But this season, Jones has established himself as a first-team regular under Jose Mourinho. In fact, Mourinho has said that Phil Jones has got all the qualities he likes in a central defender. United definitely look more strong with him in the bank of defensive four.
During the 2014-15 season, he had a clearance rate of 2.4 per game, but in the last two seasons, he has had a clearance rate of 6.7. The most important change we have seen in Jones, is his ability to tackle when he is one-on-one with a forward player. Before last season he struggled to win single duels, but this season he has won 4.7 duels per game.
