Hailed as the signing of the summer, Javier Hernandez has had a lean time at West Ham this season to the point where his summer exit is being freely discussed.
Here’s how ClaretandHugh’s followers feel about Chicharito’s future:
O Another striker disaster. It is still possible that Hernandez could be okay with a partner. Before his injury he scored a few, even in the shapeless shambles that was Bilic’s set up.
O No doubt he’s a top goal scorer and playing up top on your own is not easy. However, for me he doesn’t hassle enough.
O Chica will never win headers or many contested balls in the area. His strength has always been feeding off the scraps the bigger players give him. He definitely has a place in our team if we can play him with big Arnie and maybe Ayew or a new big man up front.
O Problem being we don’t play to Chic’s strengths. er, brought in individuals with no over-arching game plan or vision, so we’ve bits of three different jigsaws that just won’t fit.
