Real Madrid boss Ancelotti: I've not asked Chicharito to score goals

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti insists he's unconcerned over Javier Hernandez's lack of goals.

The on-loan Manchester United striker has struggled to get on the scoresheet over the past two months.

"When a striker gets an opportunity, he wants to do everything he can and score. I've never asked to him to score goals, but to work hard and help the team. Everyone can assess what he does on the pitch. You have to assess the work he does in training," said Ancelotti.

"It's important to have players who train flat out even if they don't play, like him or Nacho. That's a sign of great professionalism and I value him for that. I would like to give him more playing time because he deserves it for the way he works, but he knows that at Real Madrid there is a lot of competition up front."
