Last 5 games — every market the model rates

The bars are what he actually did. The percentage is what the model expects next time if he starts — it is built from his season rate, weighted toward the positional average when that rate rests on few minutes, so it will not simply echo a five-game run.

Every figure above is counted match data for the 2026 MLS season, not a projection. FotMob applies a minutes qualifier to its per-90 tables, so a stat absent here is one the season does not yet support for Jones rather than a zero. Club form and fixture forecasts are on the New York City FC page.
