During his presentation as the new helmsman of the LA Galaxy , Greg Vanney spoke of the challenges he has in the short term in the team and one of them is to help Javier Hernández to make him the scorer that the team thought he would be when they signed him.
Between injuries and some extra-court problems, the Mexican forward did not stand out as the franchise player they were looking for when hiring him , since he could not play the full tournament and in the 12 games he had only managed to score twice , a very poor figure for a footballer with his poster.
Due to this, the new DT explained why he believes that the Mexican has not been able to show his potential and said that he will do whatever is in his power to help him regain his level.
“ For us the important thing is to help him by having clear scoring opportunities. A forward like this feeds on what is happening around him And if there are not enough arrivals, it is very difficult for a player like that to adapt and be the forward that he is. He is not a player who is going to take away five players and score, he is an area player who can score in this league . We must make sure that our game structure can support him to have those opportunities, it is a team concept and he can be the one who makes the plays for us ”, mentioned the strategist who was crowned in the MLS in the 2017 with Toronto.
“I think he’s a world-class forward who understands how to send the ball to the back of the net. He is very astute in his movements in the area to find spaces and windows, his ability to stand out, his ability to finish the plays is out of the ordinary “, he said about the capabilities of Javier Hernández .
