Iker Casillas

[Mr Hulot]

I know that this guy was very important for Spain and Real Madrid last season, but in my opinion there should be a seperate award for goalkeepers. He cannot be ahead of players like Pirlo, Busquets, Özil etc..

 

[adil_909]

i think he had a strong case to win the award. he captained madrid to la liga and spain to the euros, playing a crucial role in both teams. should have been among the top 3 finalists i think, hate to say it but above iniesta.

Riddle me this

Perhaps casillas thinks that no matter his personal feelings, he should still support the coach of real madrid in a competition. Which would be admirably, but unfortunately very misplaced loyalty on mourinho.

 

[Garrus]

It's all damage control

So did he have a strong case because of his performances, or because he had a band around his arm?

He got dropped at RM ffs. And it wasn't some lunatic decision. He has had a below-par 2012-13 season. There were a lot of Spanish players who were more important for Spain during the Euros. And for Real Madrid last season too. Cristiano, Ozil, Di Maria, Pepe, Ramos, Alonso.

Yes, we get it. He loves Mou unconditionally.

I didn't get it, though.

Either you didn't get what I wrote or that is the most homo response i've ever gotten on the forum

He should start by being the best GK in La Liga IMO (he might be, but only arguably)

Fixed

You must be tripping.

 

[mitkoa7x]

Im still amazed how RM's 2nd choice keeper made it in the FifProXI, he must be special.

Heh, I rate Casillas very highly. The only player from Madrid I don't dislike.
