It's Real in China
Real Madrid captain Raul Gonzalez arrived in an optimistic mood.
He said doubts about his future at the club have been dispelled and he was confident of rediscovering his best form next season.
Last season was Raul's worst since breaking into the Real Madrid first team a decade ago. He scored just nine goals and was off the pace in all but a handful of games.
He hinted that disagreements between the players and the club hierarchy had, in part, been responsible for the team's failure to live up to expectations in the last two seasons. Real finished second behind Barcelona in 2004/5.
