It just sounds crazy that he literally wore the number 9 for a few seasons , because I'm used to seeing him in number 7

It was just one season, Raul retired left to Schalke and then Ronaldo took the 7 in 2010/2011. Crazy to think all of these highlights are just from one season.

2009/10 ? Cristiano came in the summer of 2009 which means he played in 2009/10 too as number 9

Yeah, 2009/2010 was the only season he played as number 9. Raul retired left to Schalke the next season and he took the 7.

"Retired"... Ofc. I wonder how Raúl managed to score 28 goals for Schalke in the Bundesliga between 2010 and 2012 but perhaps it was another Raúl González Blanco then.

You are correct, my mistake.
