Real Madrid – Iker Casillas Won’t Stay With Champions League Football Alone

Jose Mourinho Hates Pepe & Iker Casillas but Loves Diego Lopez & Raphael Varane
It’s always personal for Jose Mourinho, always has been. Probably knowing his time at Real Madrid is coming to an end, he doesn’t mind blasting out at strong dressing room figures like Pepe and Iker Casillas, while praising himself by “supporting” Raphale Varane and Diego Lopez.

Whether it’s a good or bad performance from Cristiano Ronaldo, the goal will come.
