The Reds have rarely, if at all, reached top gear in a season that – not just at Old Trafford – has stuttered and spluttered along so far. But Javier Hernandez, who helped United move level on points with league leaders Chelsea on Saturday, is promising great things to come.



United’s defence is looking increasingly more solid, while a mixture of players returning to form and fitness in attack bodes well for a crucial period in the Barclays Premier League campaign.

“The last few months might have been difficult, but all of my team-mates and I say that great things are coming soon,” Hernandez told MUTV.

The Mexican is increasingly capable of making an impact, either as a starter or substitute. Against Wigan he came off the bench and grabbed his seventh goal of the season to wrap up a 2-0 win.

“The important thing was that we got the win and moved to the top of the table, level on points with Chelsea,” added Chicharito. “It’s good for us [that Arsenal and Chelsea] dropped points. We wanted three point and it made it easier for us that Wigan got two red cards.”

That was when Hernandez was sent on, with the view of increasingly United’s goal tally. The Reds were only capable of adding one more goal.

“It could have been more comfortable, we had a lot of chances,” he said. “I was very pleased to score, but the main thing was that we got the three points.”

It's different when any and every guy you meet calls you a Ronaldo fangirl for years the second they find out you support United. It still happens, and I'm like, 'he doesn't even play for us anymore...' and they look at me like they had no idea.

But shoo', when it comes to Chicharito, I just don't give a damn.

Ugh I know what you mean. All my guy friends think I watch football for the pretty and one of them was amazed to know I watch the full 90 minutes. Jeez not every girl who likes football is a fangirl. /:

yeah tbh I find it insulting. it's different if you're just talking to a girl about it, we mess around, but most guys assume automatically that you're a fangirl and they think you know nothing about it/aren't interested because you genuinely like the sport. it happens to me almost every time and after a minute of talking about it with them they realise I know 10000x more than they do.

the worst part is I grew up as a tomboy (hate the word but it's appropriate I guess..) for most of my life and was always the sporty one among my friends and family, so whenever a guy questions that now or gives me that look when I say I'm into football or sports, I just want to smack them lol.
