Hernandez voted Player of the Month by Manchester United official website
Manchester United’s Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez has been voted as the Player of the Month, by the Manchester United official website, for the month of January. This is for the second time that the Mexican is winning such an accolade, with Dimitar Berbatov
a close second.
Both the players had the same percentage of votes (45%) but Hernandez won the poll by just 69 votes. A total of 33,000 votes were cast by Manchester United supporters from around the World on the official website. Team http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550 and veteran midfielder
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 were also shortlisted for the award. January was a good month for Manchester United, as the side was able to gain 13 out of 15 points and were able to go into the last 16 of the FA Cup.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254 was awarded the Barclays Premier league Player of the Month for his 5 goals in as many fixtures. However, according to the fans, it was the Mexican’s contributions which were more vital for Manchester United. The striker scored two match
winnings goals against West Bromwich Albion and Southampton. Also, he opened the scoring against Stoke City at Old Trafford, and also scored the equalising goal in the come-from-behind-victory against Blackpool.
“Chicha is a natural goalscorer so when you bring someone on like him, there are always going to be goalscoring opportunities. He's still young and improving his game, but he's already got a great eye for goal. He showed great coolness for his goal [against
Blackpool] because he'd missed a chance just before that,” stated midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Darren-Fletcher-c10361 in appreciation of the 22-year-old striker.
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was also delighted with the performances of the Mexican. The manager stated that in the Southampton goal, Hernandez just had one chance on goal and he drilled the ball into the back of the net. That is exactly
what is required from a striker and Hernandez has the ability to score from every chance he gets.
Chicharito has all the makings of becoming the next big thing at Old Trafford. The player’s scoring rate off-the-bench is remarkable and he has been compared to the Red Devils legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. His form has given Sir Alex a selection dilemma,
as he may well have to bench the out-of-form http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 for the services of Chicharito.
