Javier Hernandez says that Manchester United will focus on winning the Europa League after their Champions League disappointment.

Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez believes that the Red Devils need to "get used" to being out of the Champions League as they prepare to take on Ajax in the Europa League tomorrow.

The Premier League champions dropped out of the elite European competition at the group stage earlier this season along with North West rivals Manchester City.

"Both [Man United and Ajax] have come out of the Champions League and they both have a great history," said Hernandez.

"We have won a lot of European Cups between us, so it will be a very interesting game. We need to get used to the fact we are not in the Champions League this season.

"And the history of Manchester United is such that it doesn't matter which competition you are in, we want to win it, no matter who else is in it, or whether it is an important trophy for other teams."

Meanwhile, Nani has travelled with Sir Alex Ferguson's side to Holland following a knock that has kept him out for almost three weeks.
