Hernandez keen to push on
Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez has vowed not to rest on his laurels after a stunning debut season in England.[LNB] Hernandez, currently on Gold Cup duty with Mexico, scored 20 goals for the Red Devils in 2010/11 following his arrival from Guadalajara last summer, to help United win the Premier League and reach the Champions League final.[LNB]And he has no plans to be a one-season wonder.[LNB]The 23-year-old said in L'Equipe: "I am very happy that, as a squad, we won the English championship. This is a wonderful thing, especially after a title race so competitive. Chelsea, Arsenal and even Manchester City battled to the end, but we never doubted our strength.[LNB]"Our team has such soul and such spirit.[LNB]"Success is written into the DNA of this club. I'm at the best club in the world.[LNB]"Everything is done to succeed and win titles. There is only the Champions League defeat that sticks in the throat.[LNB]"Personally, I am extremely happy with my season, but I do not rest on my laurels. I want to do even better next season. I want to help this club to make history."[LNB]He admitted his goal tally had taken even him by surprise.[LNB]"Early in the season, I thought I would have limited playing time, or very limited," he said.[LNB]"At best, I thought my season would be coming off the bench late in games, trying to unlock a complicated situation.[LNB]"Basically, the aim for the season was essentially to adapt to the Premier League, especially physically. But gradually I got playing time, and I started to feel confident, scoring a few goals early in the season.[LNB]"Everything was so fast. I could not have hoped for it. I had a dream season."[LNB]Hernandez says his team's 2-1 win at Stoke on October 24 was when he really felt comfortable as a United player.[LNB]"There was a game that really made me realise that I could have an interesting season. It was the match against Stoke City in which I scored twice," he said.[LNB]"Throughout the match, I felt perfectly at ease in the game. I felt like I had been playing for Manchester United for 10 years![LNB]"Thanks to my team-mates, I could express myself freely on the pitch. I think it was the pivotal game in my season. I will remember it all my life."
