We are so proud of our local boy... Chicharito hernandez plays for manchester united soccer team.
Chicharito is from Mexico, his grand parents live right down the street from my house.
Chicharito has done very well for himself.
He paid for a new soccer field friday for the kids to plat games.
Then he went out sunday for manchester and scored 3 goals in their ein.
We are so proud of him here.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well that is absolutely great to hear about Chicharito and i am sure u guys must be feeling very proud to see him playing so great this way. Playing for Man U is not a small deal and even he must be feeling lucky to be a part of such a legendary team that has always given some great matches to everyone. I know the people of your locality would be feeling great to see him on TV and must be feeling restless to catch him even more in matches to come.
What say?

Well that sounds great that people are taking pride that a player from their area is playing football and it might seem weird to some but i think it is the love adulation and blessings that people are showering on him. I think it is a great opportunity for the people to avail such special deals and make the most out of it. He he he.

It is great he remembers his hometown and the little kids that probably look up to him. I am glad he is making you guys all so proud.

Great player and a real asset for Manchester United. He doesn't get a good run in the team because of the likes of Rooney and Van Persie, but he has a good goal scoring record and hopefully he will stay with Man U for the foreseeable future. Great for you that you know his family.
He seems to have lots of different names though, like The Little Pea. Is he on the run?

Right. I think I was called "Go and play up you're own end" from about the age of six.

That's great to hear that Chicharito has remembered his roots and put money and assistance into the community of his upbringing.Many footballers are criticised but this is an example of the good that some of them do. He is a great role model for kids in Mexico - both on and off the pitch.

Is he your favorite football player? 3 goals are good for him.
