Lots of Managers seem to have a thing about playing centre backs in different positions-whether its to improve their overall tactical ability or gameplay, I don't know-but Jones (and Smalling), both CB's have played at right back this season, Jones has even played in midfield.
I always thought Darren Kenton and Micky Spillane were centre backs, but they both had spells at tight back for us, MS in midfield as well. I do tend to wonder whether their careers suffered because they couldn't settle down and commit to a set position.
