"?Javier Hernandez believes he could have 'starred' at either Manchester United or Real Madrid had he been afforded the same chances to play at either of those clubs as he is receiving at Bayer Leverkusen.
The Mexico international, who joined Leverkusen from United in a €12m move last summer, has proven a revelation for the Bundesliga outfit, scoring 26 goals across all competitions.
The 28-year-old has insisted that he would have been capable of the same feats at either Real Madrid or Man United.
"We all know the history of United and Real "? European Cups, fighting for everything "? but now I'm with the third-best team in the Bundesliga," Hernandez told "?FourFourTwo.
"I didn't have the chance. I never had the chance to play 20 games in a row so people could say: 'He's a good player who should stay' or 'He can't be the star "? he's not a good player'.
"Ask the United fans. The numbers are there. I started only 85 games at United and I scored 60 goals [in total]. At Real, I started just 12 games and scored nine goals.
"At Leverkusen I've started 37 games and I have 26 goals. The difference is that Leverkusen want me on the pitch. The others didn't."
