Chicarito

Sir Alex Ferguson, one of the most prestigious and honored soccer managers of the world who also has made a habit of identifying and nurture young talents. He helped develop the careers of players like Beckham and Christiano Ronaldo.

 This past summer Ferguson put his eye on a young Mexican footballer known simply as 'Chicharito' ("Little Green Pea"), he is Javier Hernandez, third generation soccer player from Guadalajara, Mexico, player for the beloved "Chivas" or goats (the only team in Mexico that has never had a foreign born player). Hernandez will be the first Mexican to play for Manchester United.

 Over the past year, this Chicharito Hernandez has been unstoppable. He has played great soccer and seemed like a player too good for the Mexican League, he scored 7 goals in 4 games to start the season and was called up for the Mexican National Team. It took him 3 games with Mexico and 4 goals to be called up for the squad in South Africa, Where he Scored 2 Goals; The first against France, and the second against Argentina. It seems like when 'Chicharito' puts on a Mexican national team jersey, a goal is guaranteed.

 Hernandez's parents and sister are also moving to England to help provide a support structure. He'll also likely benefit from the nurturing approach of United coach Sir Alex Ferguson, who is known to protect his young stars from some of the media pressure and glare associated with the Premier League.

 Javier Hernandez is fantastic with both legs; he can play alone as center forward or move to either wing. He has a great jump for headers and is very fast for counter attacks. He has the ability to take a shot in a very limited space or make the perfect pass for a teammate to score the goal.

 At 5ft 9inches, Chicharito is not only lightening fast and has great control on and off the ball. He was the fastest player in the 2010 FIFA World Cup, reaching a top speed of 32.5 km/h.

 However, even with all these amazing attributes, what makes him great is his passion for the game. Chicharito Hernandez enjoys scoring goals. You see the happiness that being on the field brings him and he gives 100% every time he is playing the game. When you see him play and score, it brings back memories of when you played as a kid with your friends.
