Man Utd: 5 Reasons Why Javier Hernandez Must Be Content With Being A Super Sub

1. He Consistently Scores From The Bench

Drawing comparisons to former long-serving Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Hernandez seems to find the back of the net more often than not when coming off the bench. Scoring some important goals for the side in the final stages of games, he offers a different dimension when being introduced late on. His role is to score and create goals for the team, and he achieves it consistently over the course of a season. Last campaign, he made 22 appearances in the Premier League - scoring 10 goals. However, 13 of the games saw him coming off the bench, which highlights how the 25-year old is a secret weapon kept hidden until needed at the vital moments. Would that suggest Hernandez' role to United is to continue being an impact player? Despite his own grievances at being labelled just a super-sub, the stats don't lie, and Hernandez stands more chance prolonging his career with Manchester United if he remains content at being brought off the bench.
