Raúl González Blanco

Raúl to Canal +

"It was a good matchday for us, but we have to stay on track"

Raúl was the best player in December according to Canal + viewers and, therefore, the recipient of the Antonio Puerta award following tonight's match.

“It was a complicated match. Villarreal have been playing very well and we started off strong. We took the lead, but they stayed in the fight and created a lot of danger with such a mobile attack. That's why all their opponents have a hard time stopping them.”

“We've recovered many values over the last year. Today was an example. When they equalised we had the strength to search for another goal. It was a complicated match, but the fans enjoyed it. The crowd supports us and the great atmosphere in the Bernabéu makes us want to play our hearts out in each match.”

“It was a good matchday for us, but we have to stay on track. La Liga will be decided in the last ten matchdays and the larger the lead the better because anything can happen. We want to continue down the same line. The team is in great form, and that's what matters the most.”

“In order to continue on like this and not get too cocky it's important to lead a normal life. It's important for me to surround myself around good people and to be with my family. I live for football. I live to train every day and to be in the best shape possible. I enjoy playing for the best team in the world and if the fans are having fun, things tend to turn out well.”

“I am comfortable in many Madrid. We can play a variety of football. We are comfortable when we dominate, but we also know how to defend and to advance the ball quickly. It's that mix that makes us work when we have to. We had the ball more when Guti advanced it and we dominated the football and created more opportunities.”

“It's hard to pick just one player who was my teammate. Talentwise, I think Zidane is above the rest, but there were also important players like Hierro, Redondo, Figo... I was lucky enough to play with the best players in the world but, more importantly, we've recovered team spirit.”

Small pic of Mamen from SEMANA magazine

I don't like Mamen....... sorry

I LOVE MAMEN!

I think she is the perfect woman for Raul and also I find her and Veronique Zidane the most beautiful, elegant & classy of all the footballer's wives in the world.

Anyone can have beauty but elegance & class is only obtained by a few.

I love Veronique Zidane!

Mamen...hmmm...

She is not pleasant to me, that it tries to be more popular than her husband.

And I don't like her appearance and a manner to put on. In it a lot of unnatural.

But it only my opinion.

Mamen looks like a woman on a spanish soap I watch. The haircut made me think of it right away....

AAAAAAAAAAAH !!!!

Thanks a looooooooot :wub2:
