Chicharito desperate to prove himself to Man Utd again

Javier Hernandez admits he is determined to force his way back into Manchester United's starting line-up.

The Mexican striker has failed to nail down a regular starting spot at Old Trafford in recent times, falling behind Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney and Danny Welbeck, but is looking to keep working hard in order to impress manager David Moyes.

"I strive for that, I am working towards that, earning a spot as a starter," Chicharito told Telemundo.

"I know that my performance on the pitch will allow me to achieve that goal someday either here [in Manchester] or elsewhere for any other club.

"I just need to be given more opportunities to showcase what I can do, because all of us want to be able to contribute our part so this team can win championships.

"I am going on four years here [at Manchester United] and really, like I have always said, I am happy to be able to play for one of the best clubs in the world. So I'm happy, doing my best every single day to earn more minutes on the pitch."
