Real Madrid striker Chicharito blasts Man Utd: No backing

Real Madrid loan signing Javier Hernandez has hit out at parent club Manchester United. Talking to Claro Sports, the hitman admitted that United's lack of belief failed to inspire him with confidence during his three-year stay.

Chicharito aid: "There was no confidence. I remained patient and that's why I'm here today. It was a very tough year especially because they didn't believe in me.

"I had the chance to meet Ancelotti when he was Chelsea coach. The faith he has in his players motivates me and makes me work hard.

"I really want to make the most of my time here. Any footballer dreams about joining Real Madrid. I know I'm here for a reason. The statistics support me, I'm a good player and a good person."
