Raul and Morientes.
I'm not saying that because I am a Real fan, I sincerely think it's best for the team. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Even as a Culé I can only agree there. Those two know each other and build a incredible strike force together. Sometimes it seems like one of them always scores. :star:

Agreed,
Raul and Morientes should be upfront, something strange is that Morientes doesn't perform that great for Real, but for Spain he's amazing!
Wasn't Mori also the one who chosed Spains national side over Real Madrid some years ago? :star:

Raul and Morientes would be fine by me, but i'd still prefer to see Tristan-Raul given more of a chance first.
Raul-Diego Tristan would be my first choice striking line, as the manager thread says. Moro as the supersub
Or, let´s go crazy. All three of them on the field.

Works with me, why can't it happen. 3 excellent strikers
-------------------Morientes------Raul--------Tristan------------
they would surely scare any goalie!

All three would work with Raul playing in a recessed role behind them.

It would depend on the formation,if Raul would play left wing you could have..........
------------------------Baraja----------------Valeron----------------------
Jaoquin-------------------------------------------------------------Raul
----------------------Tristan-------------------Morientes-------------
and yes i'm fully aware that raul is beside up front,but a line up like this would be a sight to behold,although with Morientes not in the Real team,he might find it tough to keep his place for Spain, especially with the form of Luque(that's his name isn't it?,plays for depor)
Still no discussion for me: Morientes-Raúl :star: ;) and De La Pena behind them :)
Rule: Valeron would have to play a more forward role, keeping Baraja as the only ballwinner (I don´t complain with that). Also put Luque there. What a great substitute he would make (I prefer to keep him in the bench, since his play style is similar to that of Tristan)

No i saw Valeron play a role like this against Arsenal a few years ago and he was amzing,he was dropping deep to pick up the ball aand completely controlled the game,i thought he was good before that game,but had no idea he had such an incredible range of passing and array of skills.
