However, United will arrive at Goodison Park in full confidence and high targeting performance as having not lost in the league since going down 4-0 at Chelsea on October 23, a recent upturn in form which Jones has credited to the "passionate" Portuguese.
"He is great, passionate, honest and his passion rubs off on the players and you can see that out on the pitch," he said in an exclusive interview with Soccer Saturday."
All the players fight for him and it is a great feeling at the moment. He is what he is and that is why he is great. Like he is with you, he is like that with us. -Jones added.
Jones says more about his manager qualifed him as an honest one who by his all effort trying to carry them along and letting them know the situation of things. He said:
"That is all you can ask, for a manager to be honest and tell you how things are. If you need telling, you need telling and he has done that for every player and you can see that out on the pitch."He has brought a resilience, he wants to defend properly, but he also wants to attack in a free-flowing way. And I think you can see that at the moment, the chances are coming and we just need to put them away."
He also added that: "Those draws against Burnley, Stoke and Arsenal have not stalled us, but we needed to turn those into wins. All three goalkeepers had worldy games."We are playing free-flowing football and getting into great positions and we just need to finish teams off sooner."
He made it known that past failures cannot but a catalyst to speed-up their performances and a means of inspiration that will help to attaining best position this season.
Mourinho has also hailed the importance of Jones' presence in United's back four following injuries to both Chris Smalling and Eric Bailly, with the team's unbeaten run of late coinciding with the central defender's own return to the starting line-up five games ago.
