    Raul?

    Liverpool boss Benitez can land Real Madrid's Raul on cheap
    tribalfooball.com - April 05, 2007

    Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez could be given the chance to sign Real Madrid captain Raul on the cheap in the summer.

    DiarioSport says Real president Ramon Calderon and sports director Pedja Mijatovic are seriously considering bringing down the curtain on Raul's time at the club.

    Having added youngsters Gonzalo Higuain, Fernando Gago and Marcelo in January, Calderon wants to continue overhauling the current squad over the summer and is weighing up showing the club captain the door.

    Raul still has three years left on his contract, but admitted earlier this season that he would only stay with Real for "as long as they want me". Like the striker, Calderon is also anxious to avoid any controversy should he decide time's up and would be prepared to smooth his move away by asking only a nominal fee for the 29 year-old.

    Raul has been a regular visitor to Anfield since Benitez's appointment and the Liverpool manager remains a big fan of the Spanish star. The chance to work with one of his country's modern day greats would be difficult for Benitez to pass up - particularly should Calderon be reasonable on the price.

    Just believe and you never know what will happen.

    According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

      If we hadn't signed the crow i would have said yes as a replacement for Fowler. But, don't need him now

        Depending on the price I could be convinced. I'm not convinced he would adapt to the PL but a creative forward of his calibre would be sensational if he did. I would sort out other signings first though.

                He is the biggest drama queen at Madrid, there would most likely be issues with him at Liverpool. At one stage the were stories about Raul blanking certain new players that threatened his position.
                Bill shankly to Tommy Smith after he'd turned up for training with a bandaged knee:
                'Take that poof bandage off, and what do you mean YOUR knee, it's LIVERPOOL'S knee !'

                "Sorry, boss, I should have kept my legs together," said Lawrence. "No, Tommy, your mother should have kept her legs together!," replied Shankly.

                  The best player in the World back in his day.

                  He's a shadow of the player he once was, that said, I would take him on a free.

                            AA, he was never the best player in the world at any stage of his career.
