Man United star eyes more improvement at Old Trafford
Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez insists that he is not afraid of competition for a place in the starting line-up in the team.
Danny Welbeck, Mame Biram Diouf and Federico Macheda are all back in the United squad to add to the presence of Wayne Rooney, Michael Owen and Dimitar Berbatov.
However, Hernandez is not scared of losing out to his team-mates for a regular slot in Sir Alex Ferguson's first XI and believes that more competition will help him improve and develop.
It's not a problem," the 23-year-old told
Inside Inside. "I've come to learn that there will always be competition, at any club.
"You look around on the training pitch and there are almost 30 players, but only 11 can start a game. So it's tough.
"You'll always have disappointments. It helps you improve, though. On the training ground everybody wants to do their best, they want to prove what they can do and earn a spot in the team."
Unbelievable
The Mexico international joined United from Guadalajara in the summer of 2010 and was hugely impressive in his debut season at Old Trafford, scoring 13 goals in the Premier League and four in the Champions League.
Hernandez, though, says that he is still "getting used" to playing for United and enthused: "It's unbelievable [playing here].
"In some ways I'm still getting used to wearing this shirt and being around these incredible players, seeing my name on a Manchester United teamsheet... it's amazing.
"Some days I wake up and I just can't believe it. I'm living in this great country, playing for the best club in the world in the best league in the world. I'm so thankful for that."
