Sir Alex Ferguson was never seriously worried by the thought Javier Hernandez could have been a one-hit wonder at Manchester United.

With another Gold Cup this summer and the World Cup after that, Ferguson may feel it is time to give the 24-year-old a rest and help develop his finishing prowess that has earned so many comparisons to Old Trafford legend Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. "Javier is instinctive in terms of his space and movement," Ferguson added. "He has always had that. That was the attraction when we first saw him. He is good at finding space and has impressive speed off the mark."
