Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez credits his amazing off-the-ball running to being football mad.

Chicharito is hailed in England for the runs he makes off the ball.

He explained to manutd.com: "I think it's from watching so much football. I love the game. If there's a match on TV then I'll watch it. I don't care who's playing, I don't care which league it is. Instead of watching films in my free time I'll sit in front of a match. And when I watch I analyse other players and am thinking about my own game.

"You have to remember I'm in a very physical league. I'm not the tallest or strongest so there's no point in me trying to compete in those areas. I need to use other skills or talents to get the better of defenders."
