After some speculations regarding Chicharito Hernandez's retirement, came up the idea of a farewell match for him, after the serving top European clubs and Mexico national team for so many years.

Before leaving Sevilla and signing for Los Angeles Galaxy, Javier Hernandez had made some comments about a retirement, knowing he was going through the last years of his career. But after his first season at MLS was a disaster with bad performances and injuries, the rumours about him hanging the boots reappeared.

So it is expected that when the 32-year-old striker communicates the final decision, there will be a farewell match in his honor, probably when the public comes back totally. And who will be there? Let's see who would be there in the best possible outcome, designing a starting eleven of teammates at clubs vs teammates at Mexico national team.

Surely, the best players Chicharito has played with at clubs are all from Manchester United and Real Madrid, so the line up would be: Iker Casillas; Dani Carvajal, Sergio Ramos, Rio Ferdinand, Marcelo; Toni Kroos, Paul Scholes, Luka Modric; Gareth Bale, Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the other side, the Mexican team, the starting eleven would probably consist of: Guillermo Ochoa; Paul Aguilar, Rafa Marquez, Carlos Salcido, Miguel Layun; Jonathan Dos Santos, Hector Herrera; Andres Guardado, Cuauhtemoc Blanco; Giovanni Dos Santos; Raul Jimenez.

He should just have to choose one of the attackers to take out of the team and put himself on. The venue, obviously, would be the Jalisco stadium, where he made his first steps with Chivas de Guadalajara, his boyhood club. Something like that would be the best farewell for Mexico top scorer ever, with 52 goals.
