Fantastic player is our Hernandez. He makes those runs off the shoulder of the defender so well. Very good decision bringing him on. Blackpool were playing with a very high line.

I love him.
He really is a natural goal scorer.
Had 3 great chances within a few minutes.
Took the goal very well too.

finally looks like players are getting used to his runs, it really does throw the defenders into a pickle, with berbatov/rooney dropping off and chicharito running in behind.
clinical goal aswell.

This was what I've been waiting for all season. For the likes of Scholes to pick out Hernandez with those long cross field balls 
What a signing he has been! Scored some of our most crucial goals this season already.

You should just ban yourself.
I remember people questioning my decision to get his name and number on the back of my shirt at the start of the season, based solely on his WC performances.
I hate to say to those folks I told you so
I love the guy, I want his babies.

Crcking little player. His movement is something else.
We just seem to always be on the verge of scoring when he's on the pitch. Given that he's usually replacing Berbatov or Rooney, we do link up a bit less with our strikers in the buildup. But in terms of chances, teams just seem so scared of him running in behind that it opens up space for all our front players to take advantage, not just Hernandez directly.
Ole, Ole, Ole!
Nah, just kidding. But this guy is a natural born assassin. Yet again he's scored a decisive goal off the bench. When we need it most, he just finds a way to deliver. Ever since he signed he's been proving he's more than just an option.

Same here. Was gifted his jersey (well I asked for it) back in August
8th league goal. Great sub by Fergie at the right time.
I make it that he's scored in every away win this season, except Rangers (did he even play?)
Signing of the season?
What I liked was the ice cool finish that he produced having just missed a one on one.
Is there any need for a super thread on this guy now? When will it end?
If the forum was 20 years old we'd have a 250k Ryan Giggs thread.

Aye, you did get the feeling that Blackpool didn't quite know what to do when he came on. Keep a high line and have him run in behind, or drop deeper and invite pressure from us.
What a player, should have scored more though. Absolute bargain !
Came on and should have scored. He's fantastic.
does he ever not score?
For the first time today I felt he's making a strong case for himself.
Not just the goal, but the movement and the difference he made as an attacking option was unbelievable, it changed our team.

Yes, to have settled so fast in our league without playing week in and week out is something special, his instinct is just incredible and he's smart enough to realize with his pace he can give the defenders a yard and still beat them to the ball so he will be getting offside less and less.
His goal tonight was center forward play at it's best.
Himself and Owen are going to do some damage on Saturday.
How many points has this guy won for us potentially so far this season ?
Along with Berba and Giggs tonight, nought but sensational.

he is certainly a wake up call for rooney...
Well that's a bit unfair. Against Birmingham Rooney was really good and he was damned to play on the left wing today.
Not a good game from him nevertheless.
Love him. Absolutely love him.
What's easily forgotten though is the performance of the linesman on the side Chicharito was attacking. Three very tight (extremely tight in the case of Chicharito's two chances) decisions with the attacker moving one way and the defender the other, and the linesman managed to get all three spot on, where another linesman would've raised the flag to save himself some potential controversy.

But he is putting a bit of pressure on Rooney and thats a good thing
Absolutely bang on, if the linesman hadn't been on point that game could have been ruined.
Perhaps the female lino's excellent performance functioned as a wake-up call too.
When people stop posting ?
He and Rafael are fast becoming my favourites from the current crop. Love the pair of them.
Yeah, I'd agree. Fergie has a big decision to make now as to whether he promotes this lad over Rooney for the next few games. He's certainly been knocking on the door, and this might just be the time that Fergie gives him a run in the side, even with Rooney available.
Made a huge difference when he came on. He's developed into a vital part of our squad, and I'm struggling to think of a better impact player in the league.
It's great that now we can bring on somebody who is completely different from our other strikers. Rooney and Berbatov can get caught playing in the midfield a bit much, but Hernandez is mainly concerned with playing off the last defender. Great option to have.
I'd like to see him given the no.7 shirt. Well, him or Nani.
Is Hernandez better when he comes off the bench when the opposition are tiring and his runs will create opporunities for himself and others.
In the short space of time he had 4 chances -
First one one one - should have scored
Second one on one - finished clinically
Far post diving header - did brilliant just to get on the end of it
Header from Giggs cross - he should have finished it but headed straight at the GK.
He was brilliant in his cameo.

I'm not going to name names, but here's a few quotes from when it was announced we'd signed him:

What a brilliant first season in England for a young footballer.
8 goals in the league, and I think 10 for the season. Great return given the opportunities.
Whats more impressive is that most of those would have been crucial goals rather than when were 2 or 3 up.
