About this episode

Phil Jones is a professional footballer best known for his time with Manchester United and the England national team. Renowned for his versatility and defensive skill, Phil’s career has been shaped by both incredible highs and personal challenges. His journey from Blackburn Rovers to Manchester United made him one of the sport's most recognisable faces.


In this episode, Phil opens up his experiences in football, from the excitement of joining Manchester United to the difficulties of dealing with injuries. He discusses with Jake and Damian the mental toll that self-doubt, fear, and constant pressure took on him, and how he managed to rediscover his passion for the game.


Phil also recounts his early triumph of winning the Premier League at just 21 and the realisation of what it truly means to play for a club as demanding as United. He shares lessons he’s learned from working under legendary managers like Sir Alex Ferguson.


This episode offers valuable advice for anyone facing struggles, particularly young athletes, and provides a rare glimpse into the personal and professional challenges of a Premier League footballer.
