The striker with the best off the ball movement in world football for me. I'd genuinely cry if we ever sold him to bring in another forward.
Javier Hernandez | 2012/13 Performances

Hopefully he'll start vs Arsenal.It's been fantastic to have a player like him, who doesn't complain about "lack of playing time", who gives 100% when given opportunities, who scores vital goals on a regular basis and more than anything who has an impeccable behavior.
Will he be truly happy with so few league apps given that he would be several other clubs first choice starting every game?
Love Hernandez to bits and I hope he stays but I wonder if this bit part role will satiate such a prolific striker forever?

By my count he has 16 goals and 7 assists in only 20 starts. Okay he has 12 sub appearances, but his goal/assist rate per 90 minutes must look pretty damned good.
It would be a real blow if he left, I hope he's here for many years to come.

With Fergie having had his 'new toy' season with RVP now, you'd imagine Hernandez will get a lot more games in the future.
I wonder how many people would have predicted, a few seasons back, that Van Persie would become so impervious to injury that the third choice striker at his club would struggle for games?
He's on course for a second straight 38 game season, having not missed a league game since March 2011.
It'd be fair to say he's got decent fitness levels these days.

I'm surprised Chico didn't get on for 5-10 minutes yesterday. I was thinking Sir Alex might sub RVP so he could get a standing ovation from the crowd for his hat trick and let Javier have a taste of the action as a reward for some of the crucial goals he's scored this season (my favourite of which is the winner in the 4-3 home win against Newcastle). Perhaps Chico will play at the weekend...? Hope so. He deserves it.
Next season could be a huge one for him now in light of other ongoing developments.
Without completely rehashing Randells thread about should he be happy with this season. Looking ahead I think he rightly deserves more starts. Love to see him in a settled side with RVP and Kagawa over an extended period.
The service he's likely to get

He'll be any new managers dream I imagine. His attitude is such that no matter what he'll give 100%. He's been really important when he's played this season and could be more so next season if certain unlikely rumours are to be believed.
Absolutely. If Rooney leaves, I hope we dont go out and buy another striker. The 3 we have are more than enough.
I don't see that happening first of all, and if it does I'd imagine we'd be looking to stack up on midfielders or something instead of buying another striker (because honestly, no manager loves to have as many excellent strikers as SAF does, and in a way it's understandable since you don't want to leave deserving people out of the team and you can't play 4 strikers at once).
He's probably the most likeable person in our squad.
If it was a choice between Hernandez and Rooney I'd keep Hernandez. Ridiculously likeable player, seems to still be improving as well. I'd hate to see him playing for another team.
Incredibly respectful too, sounded like "Boss, Boss, with me please... Thank you very much."
A total contrast to the mould of the modern prima donna footballers. I would be gutted to see him leave the club.
This x1000000
A guy with his talent playing at the worlds greatest club and he is so humble to......He could date my daughter anytime.....If she wasn't 7.
If Rooney leaves, I wouldn't mind Moyes moving him closer to the first team.
Lovely player. I can't even hate him when he plays for Mexico.

Everyone followed with the pictures after him...and then Evra telling everyone to get out of the picture
That made me smile from ear to ear. What a great guy.
I think the only way he goes is if he wants to leave or if we are signing some big name striker I suppose he could be sold to offset the cost of that. Would prefer he stay, wonderful player, can find a goal with virtually any part of his body no matter how contorted out of shape he seems to be. Improving in other facets of his game. And of course the attitude.
He comes across as incredibly humble at the chance to represent United and to have worked under Fergie.
Whilst not wanting to derail the thread with comparisons - his attitude when compared to Rooney's stance of late, it's unfathomable.
Hernandez's personality reminds me very much of Ole, and that is no slight on either man!
A class act in all senses.
I'd have no issues adopting him.
Alongside the Rafael the most likeable player in the squad. His enthusiasm is so infectious
Exactly, the bloke could not be more likable if he was giving disabled kids ice cream and Disneyland tickets. You just have to love the lad.
And Anderson. The 3 best guys.
Love this lad, he should never be allowed to leave.
What a guy.
What a guy.
To be fair he doesn't look much older.
Love him! That video is the sort of thing I hope is on the 4 disc Fergie Blu Ray I expect produced to celebrate his reign.

That video is hilarious - look at al the players queuing up and jostling for position to get a pic with him afterwards
He's one player that we should do everything to hang onto. He's not only a rarity as a footballer, but as a person too. Flawless attitude.
He is one of my favorite United players. His touch has improved and his one touch passing around the box and his desire to get on the end of passes is amazing. His work rate and enthusiasm is unmatched in the squad today. No one works as hard as him when he is on the field. Just wish he gets more starts next season.
So far Chico has done everything except score today. The only thing that's missing from his performance against West Brom at the minute is a goal. Considering the chances Chicharito's had he should be on the scoresheet. Still, if Hernandez does end up getting a goal it will put the cherry on top of what has been a sweet showing. He's certainly been lifted by the faith Fergie has put in him. Man of the match so far to my eyes.
Hugely improved his all round game in his three seasons here.
Deserved goal. Been brilliant today
Anyone else think this is the best you've ever seen him play?
Wouldn't let him go for all the money in the world. He's only 24! Surely he would command a larger fee than RvP
