“We’ll see a better Chicharito next season” claims Sir Alex

Sir Alex has tipped Chicharito to fight off his ‘second season syndrome’ and perform to the high standards he’s capable during the upcoming Premier League campaign.

Chicharito made a massively impressive impact in his first season at United, but was left frustrated last season by a lack of chances and a drop in form. Regardless of his lack of playing time and niggling injuries, Chicharito still managed to net 10 goals through the season; but Sir Alex expects more from the Mexican, putting his stuggles last season down to his lack of rest.

“I think this season we’ll see a better Chicharito,” said Sir Alex. “For the last four or five years he’s played all through the summer. This year he’s had a proper rest, and that started right back in May when I decided not to take him to Belfast for the Harry Gregg testimonial.”

He added “I’m sure he’ll reap the benefits. We’ve already seen the fruits of that in the early training sessions and I think he’ll have a top season. He’s such a good professional and such a fantastic personality. He just loves life and loves playing football. Every training session he buzzes around the place with a big smile.”
