I have been watching Raonic matches (though not completely). I do agree that he has improved.
In particular, his movement and net play has become better. But, I don't think the improvement is
sufficient to beat Murray.
Andy is a player who is very good against big servers (next to Fed IMO) and would be able to neutralize Milos's serves. I remember one match in which Milos was indulging in thrash talk and said it is a question of how Andy adjusts and reacts to my game (as opposed to how Milos had to deal with playing with Andy). He got promptly thrashed in that match and after that he did a mea culpa saying there is a huge difference between him and big players. In his defense, that match may be his first one with Andy.
Andy enjoyed toying Sam Groth and I expect to see some amount of toying here and there.
Even though I am not a big fan of Andy, I enjoy his matches when Andy is in control and visibly
toying with his opponent (see his match against Groth in this years AO for example).
