Bayer Leverkusen striker Chicharito has dig at Real Madrid, Man Utd

Bayer Leverkusen striker Javier Hernandez has taken a swipe at his former clubs.

Chicharito insists his success with Bayer would've been replicated at Manchester United and Real Madrid if he'd been given the chance.

He told El Pais: "I'm playing more, I have more minutes. I had few opportunities in Madrid, they were two very difficult periods.

"In the first-half of the season I had almost no chance and the second I responded to the confidence they gave me.

"With Manchester United, I had the fourth best average minutes per goal in the history of the Premier League. So I think the only thing that has changed is the regularity."
