I feel a bit sorry for Casillas

The goal he didn't stop yesterday looked really easy to stop, he is a great goal keeper but sometimes I think he is growing old. He was one of the most important players of Spanish selection, do you think Valdes would do it better than him?I wish I'm wrong because Vicente del Bosque is clearly not changing him.

Yes, you are wrong :) Mr Bosque will not change a goalkeeper just because of one mistake, even if it was a simple one. I think all goalkeepers do have their bad days on the job sooner and later. It is a position that requires 100% concentration. A moment of lapse may mean a goal and that may just be the difference whether his team succeed or fail. Remember the Ronaldinho goal from 40 meters that lobbed the great David Seaman? It happens. Bad luck. But a true sportsman will fight on. David Seaman's career in Arsenal made him a Gunners legend, just like Casillas' in Real Madrid.

Every goalkeeper will have their blooper moment but it does not mean anything. Casillas is still a great goalkeeper and as a goalkeeper, he has a longer playing career. As for Valdes, I don't rate him highly and hopefully, Vicente will not make him a first choice.

Casillas is pure quality! But he is still human. People make mistakes and misjudgments. He has done way more good then bad for his team. Valdes is good but Casillas has the experience. And for a goalkeeper experience CAN be everything

Nah, he really is a great goalkeeper, but as someone already said... he still is just a human. Everybody makes mistakes. Besides, he's been in a superb form so far this season, so I guess it's safe to say he can get away with this one.
Hala Madrid!
