Hernandez causing headache for Manchester United boss Ferguson

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted that striker Javier Hernandez has given him a 'terrible dilemma' this season.

Hernandez is behind first-choice pair Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney in Ferguson's selection order, despite scoring 14 times in all competitions this season.

Ferguson has admitted he is struggling to keep all his strikers happy.

Hernandez has made just five starts in the Premier League in 2012/13, compared to 20 for Van Persie and 12 for Rooney, while Danny Welbeck has started nine times.

"It's a terrible dilemma when I've got that lad [Chicharito] there," Ferguson said.

"Sometimes I leave him out to bring in Robin van Persie but, as I explain to him, we regard him so highly.

"He's a fantastic professional, unbelievable attitude to the game, never stops running or working and every training session’s the same.

"So I'm really pleased for him and it's also good to see Wayne [Rooney] back scoring."
