By now, we’re sure that Manchester United fans have heard about Javier Hernandez’s impressive form.
At a time when United have badly lacked goals, their former striker has been filling his boots for Bayer Leverkusen over in Germany.
Bayer’s chief executive, Michael Schade, has now questioned Louis van Gaal’s decision to allow the Mexican international to leave Old Trafford.
“Van Gaal did not know that he is a good player,” he is quoted as saying by the Manchester Evening News – although he admits that he’s learned this from the English press.
“That’s what I read in the English newspapers. They are criticising his former coach, Louis van Gaal, because he didn’t recognise what kind of talent this was.
“To be honest, Manchester would need a striker like him for the time being, but we’re happy to have him.
“I think it was a big surprise for many football fans all over the word that he decided to go to Leverkusen, because he’s played at Madrid and Manchester.
“We are a top team, a European top team, but not belonging to the first five. Nevertheless, we were convinced that he could help us to fulfill our objectives and that’s what he did.”
