Yii 2 and jQuery - php

Question

Due project requirements I have to use a different version of jQuery than the one which comes with Yii2. I know I can disable it by using:
'assetManager' => [
'bundles' => [
// you can override AssetBundle configs here
'yii\web\JqueryAsset' => [
'sourcePath' => null,
'js' => []
],
],
],
Then I go to AppAsset:
class AppAsset extends AssetBundle
{
public $sourcePath = "#app/themes/v1/assets";
public $jsOptions = [ 'position' => \yii\web\View::POS_END ];
public $js = [
"js/lib/jquery/jquery-1.9.1.js",
];
}
But this brings one big issue, jquery loads after yii.validation, etc:
</script><script src="/assets/5b466ff1/yii.js?v=1465857632"></script>
<script src="/assets/5b466ff1/yii.validation.js?v=1465857632"></script>
<script src="/assets/5b466ff1/yii.activeForm.js?v=1465857632"></script>
<script src="/assets/98d185b3/js/lib/jquery/jquery-1.9.1.js?v=1466702133"></script>
My temporal solution is changing POS_END to POS_HEAD, but that affects page SEO right?, as far as I know is considered bad practice to load js on head.
So my question is:
How can I load jQuery from my theme assets, using POS_END and loading before yii.validation etc?
A possibility is to add it on web/js/jquery.js but I would prefer to keep it on the assets bundle.
Any ideas?
Update:
Adding this to AppAsset allows me to have control on the theme itself. It is cleaner than modifying the global config.
public function init()
{
parent::init();
Yii::$app->assetManager->bundles['yii\\web\\JqueryAsset'] = [
'js' => ['lib/jquery/jquery-1.9.1.js'],
'sourcePath' => '#app/themes/v1/assets/js'
];
}

Answer 1

Just Change Your Config Code as :
'assetManager' => [
'bundles' => [
'yii\web\JqueryAsset' => [
'js' => ['lib/jquery/jquery-1.9.1.js'],
'sourcePath' => '#app/themes/v1/assets/js'
]
]
]
No Need to Define jquery in AppAsset
class AppAsset extends AssetBundle
{
public $sourcePath = "#app/themes/v1/assets";
public $jsOptions = [ 'position' => \yii\web\View::POS_END ];
public $js = [
//"js/lib/jquery/jquery-1.9.1.js" Not Required
];
}
