Coventry's 20-year-old winger Jodi Jones on starting out at Senrab, singing Mariah Carey classics and why Costa Rican full back Bryan Oviedo is the toughest opponent he has faced...

FIRST FOOTBALL MEMORY

Going over to my first Sunday league team when I was about six or seven. I went to Senrab in east London in my Arsenal kit. My godfather took me over there to training at Bartlett Park in Poplar (the same place Jermain Defoe and John Terry started). That's where it all began.

BEST PLAEYR I'VE PLAYED WITH

James Maddison and Joe Cole. I made my debut for Coventry last year and Joe was there. He was always helping me on and off the pitch. I used to watch him turn all in one touch and I've now added that to my game. He was class. I'm still in touch with him.

TOUGHEST OPPONENT

I played against Everton in the FA Cup third round for Dagenham. Bryan Oviedo was at full back when I came on. He wasn't fast but knew that I was. He knew automatically where I wanted to go. He made me think.

Jones says Bryan Oviedo gave him a tough game when Dagenham faced Everton in the FA Cup

FAVOURITE FOOTBALLING MOMENT

Cambridge away this season. We lost 2-1 but it was my 100th appearance in the Football League. To achieve that before the age of 20 meant a lot. It was up there with making my debut.

SPORTING HERO

Growing up it was Ronaldinho and now I'd say it's Neymar. I really admire Floyd Mayweather. People say he's cocky, and he is, but he is able to back it up in the ring. He works so hard.

Boxer Floyd Mayweather's tireless work ethic is what makes him Jones' sporting hero

TOUGHEST AWAY GROUND

Goodison Park was tough because of the side we were playing but there are some difficult ones to go to in League Two. I got stick at Grimsby's Blundell Park because I had a good game there and Accrington's not a nice place to go either.

FIRST ALBUM YOU BOUGHT

My mum bought me a little music player and I think the first album I downloaded was Get Rich or Die Tryin' by 50 Cent. My dad listened to that type of music and I just wanted to do the same things as him.

KARAOKE SONG

We Belong Together by Mariah Carey. I listen to stuff like that before games as well as rap music. I sung a Chris Brown song at my Coventry initiation.
