Real Madrid coach Ramos won over by Casillas

Real Madrid coach Juande Ramos insists he's happy to have Iker Casillas available to him as his No1.

Ramos dropped the goalkeeper for his first game in charge, but now believes Casillas is returning to his best and was delighted to see him named as the Best Goalkeeper for 2008 by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFHHS).

"To see his hard work and dedication recognised in such a way is a great source of joy for Real Madrid," said Ramos.

"He has always been a commendable goalkeeper and now that I am fortunate to work with him, he reaffirms the view that already I had of an excellent player."
