Manchester United are set to be without Phil Jones for two weeks after he picked up a knee injury in training.

Jones was left out of the United squad to face Hull on Boxing Day, with the club confirming that he had suffered a knock.

David Moyes had been using Jones as a defensive midfielder in recent weeks due to a shortage of options.
