Real Madrid boss Ancelotti: 2-goal Chicharito place now non-negotiable

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti was delighted with Javier Hernandez's brace in victory at Celta Vigo.

The on-loan Manchester United striker now has three goals in two games and Ancelotti's says his place is "non negotiable".

Ancelotti said: "He's enjoying the period that he's in, it's a really good one. The whole team worked well.

"If Chicharito is in this form he's non-negotiable, like Cristiano, Benzema, James, Bale, Ramos, Isco, Varane, Pepe… I have a team of non-negotiables, but only eleven can play and the rest stay on the bench."
