My 200th post : Dedicated to My favourite player Raul Gonzalez

Two goals from two games, couldn't have had a better start to his season. Yes, I am talking about Raul Gonzalez- the Real Madrid Legend. While everything is clicking in to place for Real Madrid, Raul has made a great start to his season scoring 2 of his team's seven goals in the opening two matches of the season. Schuster's new style of play has allowed Raul to play in his preferred position of a second striker, behind last year's pichichi Ruud with support from Robinho from the right.

During Capello's reign Raul was demoted to an attacking midfield role where he failed to impress and notched up only 7 league goals, well below his normal standards. He scored in his first match of the pre-season and showed his old viciousness and scored a header from a Sergio Ramos cross in Madrid's 2-1 win over Atletico and fled past two markers and beat the charging keeper to score his team's 1st goal in Madrid's 5-0 thrashing of Villareal. Being restored to his preferred position Raul has returned to his vicious-best and can be expected to score at least 20 goals this season.

I have always liked his style, his attitude and the way he captains his team from the front.
Overall Raul's one of the best player Madrid could ever have and I don't know why Luis Aragones is not calling him up for Spain and relying on David Villa whose season got off to a poor start. A Raul/Torres partnership in front would be excellent for Spain as both of them are now in optimum form.

Anyways at last I just wanna wish Raul all the best. Hope he'll score more and more goals and entertain me like the way he had always done. Viva Raul!
