Why wouldn't you want Casillas? He was immense yesterday. I sense a great opportunity here.
He's gonna struggle on crosses and corners, partially why Mourinho and Ancelotti dropped him.
I've heard that before but I don't buy it. Why would Ancelotti play him in Champions League then, where teams actually cross the ball, but keep benching him in La Liga then where they don't? It would make much more sense to do the opposite.
I don't think high balls have ever been a big problem in Casillas game. It's a myth as far as I'm concerned. He's just benched because Diego Lopez is better. Lopez is a top class keeper and had been for years but got very little recognition for it until he moved back to Real.
