I appreciate cules appreciating his qualities but coooter, Pellegrini already starts him every week over the benz and raul.
Also, it is not that year that we appreciated him, it is the moment he slide tackled espanyol's fullback, combined with reyes to score in the 90th minute and help us win the league. He was already a legend for us by then.
The following season, he cemented his reputation as a truly upcoming star, and this year, pellegrini was giving the benz a chance so he does not have to deal with perez and valdano complaining about their stupid 35 million signing.
in the end, everything works out perfectly well, especially for benzima who earns 8 million doing jack shit.
Are you even a culé? lolHe's become one of my favorite players up there with Messi, Ibra, Pato and Torres. The funny thing is he was already key for them last season but most people are only realizing it now. I also really enjoy watching DiMaria play as well; it's just too bad I havent caught as many Benfica games on TV as I'd like.
The scary thing is I only see him improving from now. I think the coach finally is realizing how important he actually is and is gonna begin starting him consistently (over Benzema and Raul). He's only going to get better playing with Kaka (as he keeps improving in form) and Ronaldo. Ronaldo has actually impressed me a lot since he's put on the Real jersey, he's been much less selfish and is becoming a great team player imo.
Higuain is better than Benzema IMO.
That's not even debatable.
