Hernandez: Can't stop scoring

Javier Hernandez says there is an ingrown never-say-die attitude engraved in the DNA of any Manchester United player.

"We've never given up in the history of Manchester United," Hernandez said after his seventh and eighth strikes of the season helped complete a remarkable 3-2 comeback for United against Aston Villa on Saturday.

"That's what the gaffer and all the legends show you. You learn the game is 90 minutes, so you fight to the end."

The Red Devils' second goal was attributed as a Ron Vlaar own-goal, but 'Chicharito' believes he has a legitimate claim for a hat-trick.

"Of course (I will claim the hat-trick)," said the Mexican striker. "I shot on target, the defender tried to kick it away but he kicked it in the same direction I shot.

"That's the decision of the referee but I've just seen the replay and that was definitely hitting the target.

"But it doesn't matter who scored the goals. The most important thing is who is top of the league and that we came back from two goals down to win."
