“It was the case that I wanted to go. Not because I don't like West Ham...” — Javier Hernandez Quote

“It was the case that I wanted to go. Not because I don't like West Ham, but because I need to have minutes on the pitch.”

“I spoke with Van Gaal, and he said that I only had a one per cent chance of playing in my position, so I headed to Bayer.”

“I'm a person who cannot be doing nothing. I have a deficit. In Mexico, we say 'hiperactivo' - hyperactive. I am hyperactive!”

“I felt the same when I went to Manchester United, to Madrid, to Leverkusen, and now at West Ham. The only pressure I have is my pressure. That's it.”

“I've been on and off with West Ham, I've had some good seasons and some not.”

“It's tricky because obviously when you join a new club, from the very first day, everyone looks at you and tries to see if you are good enough. That's more or less what you have to go through. Then the other thing is that when I signed for West Ham nobody told me I was going to be number one.”
