Hernandez hits comeback trail

JAVIER Hernandez is happy to let Sir Alex Ferguson decide when to unleash him on the Premier League again.

The Manchester United striker had only just linked up with his team-mates on their tour of the United States last month when he suffered a concussion during an innocuous incident during training in New Jersey.

Having experienced similar problems in his youth, ‘Little Pea’ was acutely aware of the need to take no chances and Ferguson immediately ruled him out until the end of August.

Tonight’s home clash with Tottenham comes too soon for the forward but manager Ferguson has now raised the possibility of a reserve team outing against Swansea at Altrincham on Thursday and the

23-year-old believes he would be ready if the call came.

"My head is good," said Hernandez. "I feel better now. I have been training with the team for three or four days but I don't know when I will be back in the squad."

Hernandez enjoyed a stellar debut season when he scored 20 goals to propel United towards a record 19th title and the Champions League final, where they were eventually beaten by Barcelona.
