Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez is happy to score from any angle.

Chicharito has yet to net from outside the box for the Reds, sparking comparisons with another of the club's great penalty-box predators, Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Hernandez was asked whether he thinks he can bag a long-range goal this season during an exclusive interview with this month's Inside United.

"You never know!" he replied. "I think part of the reason I haven't done that yet is because of the instructions I receive from Sir Alex.

"My job is play very high, right on the last man. To be honest, I don't mind how I score goals - whether or not you score from one metre or from the halfway line, it counts the same. A goal is a goal."
