PHIL JONES was spotted training alone in a field in Cheshire - 24 hours after his team-mates linked up for a similar session.
The Manchester United defender, 28, only had a dog to contend with as he tried to get back up to speed after a lengthy lay-off.

The defender was snapped by the pup-arazzi as he did some sprinting drills on Wednesday morning.
Jones appeared to be timing himself on his Smart watch as he worked up a sweat ahead of his return to Carrington.
During the lockdown, Jones was spotted enjoying a leisurely stroll near his home in Cheshire.
But it's back to business for the 28-year-old after Boris Johnson confirmed the Premier League can return on June 1.
Paul Pogba, Anthony Martial, Victor Lindelof and Andreas Pereira were also seen training on a nearby field on Tuesday.
The United first-team stars completed a series of sprinting drills before brushing up on their ball skills.

But the United duo were given their marching orders by college staff as they did not have permission to be there.
