Wacko for Jacko! Man Utd's Phil Jones reveals he dreamed of meeting Michael Jackson
MANCHESTER UNITED defender Phil Jones has revealed the personality he would most like to meet is not a footballer, but in fact the King of Pop Michael Jackson.
Jackson may have had a dubious reputation for his lifestyle off-stage but Jones says he admired the musician for his abilities as a performer.
In a video posted on YouTube entitled #MoreAboutPhil the United defender showed his musical side when professing his admiration for Jackson.
Asked the personality he dreamed of meeting Jones said: "Michael Jackson, for the simple reason that he was such a great artist and performer and one that I really admire."

And Jones admits that if he wasn't a footballer, he would have liked to have become a professional DJ.
He said: "I'd like to get a bit more insight into how they travel and the lifestyle and how they live for the night."
But despite his obvious musical tendencies Jones admits there is one sound that tops all others.
He said: "I would say the Old Trafford crowd when we're winning. They're a great bunch of supporters and they always get behind you."
