Pointless friendlies have turned Manchester United versus Manchester City into the jetlag derby

Manchester United forward Javier Hernandez will line up for Mexico against Bosnia-Herzegovina in Atlanta tonight in a friendly international that kicks off at 1am UK time.
He will then spend most of Thursday kicking his heels in a hotel before taking an eight-hour flight from the United States that will see him arrive back in Manchester at just after 10am on Friday morning.
Twenty-six hours later, United will take on Manchester City in one of the most crucial Manchester derbies in years — a fixture which could prove pivotal in the Premier League title race — and Hernandez will somehow have to raise himself to pull on his ‘Chicharito’ shirt if Sir Alex Ferguson chooses to select him for his squad.
