Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Javier Hernandez has thanked Sir Alex Ferguson as he leaves Manchester United for Bayer Leverkusen, but has chosen to avoid any mention of former managers Louis van Gaal and David Moyes.
Hernandez, who has the nickname 'Chicharito', posted on Instagram last night:
"I want to thank Sir Alex Ferguson and Jim Lawlor [chief scout], the club staff, all the players I played with,” he wrote on his personal Instagram account, with the image seen above.
"But especially I want to thank all the Manchester United fans in the UK and all around the world for the incredible support I've had this past four years and all the best wishes they have for me in my new chapter!!"
Hernandez, 27, moved to United from Guadalajara in 2010, but faltered after an impressive start with the team. He spent last season on loan at Real Madrid. He completed a £7m move ot Bayer Leverkusen this week.
But was the Van Gaal snub anything to do with how the manager reacted to his penalty miss last weekend.
