lol, I rate Casillas highly. But he wasn't in great form for the WC

He made quite a few mistakes on the way to Spain winning the tourny. You said you don't win big finals with a keeper who makes mistakes, right? I was just giving another example that it can be done.

        Would you be defending him so much if he hadn't played in Spain? (Other Football) - Vivid Data Shark, Aug 14, 20:49:17
        
        So because I've seen him regularly, around those who haven't seen him that much (Other Football) - pants, Aug 14, 20:52:57
        
        Basically, yes ;-) (Other Football) - Vivid Data Shark, Aug 14, 21:08:15
