    Many Real Madrid fans are sad, crying even, about Iker Casillas leaving the team to sign with Porto, maybe his last stop before retiring. But the club itself? It moves on, because no one is bigger than the team for Los Blancos, or at least for the man running this team.

    Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo Does Nothing, Iker Casillas Saved the Day

    All in all, Real Madrid can be pleased with their 0-0 draw against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League despite the poor performance from it’s best player, Cristiano Ronaldo, maybe because it was a huge confidence builder for Iker Casillas, especially in the second half.

    Real Madrid – Iker Casillas Remains Class, Cristiano Ronaldo is Embarrassed & Angry

    It was hard to tell that Real Madrid actually made it through to the quarterfinals after their 4-3 loss to Schalke at the Santiago Bernabeu, as Iker Casillas forced his teammates to stay on the pitch and face the wrath of the fans, while Cristiano Ronaldo spent most of the time, aside from scoring goals, being angry at the world.

    6 Best World Cup Memes Still Making Fun of Iker Casillas & Spain

    2014 World Cup – Iker Casillas & Spain Aren’t Washed Up

    Big results are usually misleading. Spain aren’t four goals worse than the Netherlands, and Iker Casillas, along with Sergio Ramos and Gerard Pique, isn’t as bad as their 90 minute fiasco. However, for Spain to somehow get over this extreme setback and still have something to play for in the World Cup, some decisions, like stopping this hybrid style forced upon them by Diego Costa, need to be made by Vicente del Bosque.

    Iker Casillas – The Final Real Madrid Chapter?

    This has been another weird season for a goalkeeper that would probably start for almost every team in the world but because of Jose Mourinho and that huge ego of his has turned into a second option for Real Madrid and Carlo Ancelotti. Only the Italian manager isn’t “all-in” in the Iker Casillas humiliation process, giving him the chance to play in Cup matches and the Champions League.

    Iker Casillas – Real Madrid Isn’t the Place For Him

    It’ll be somewhat of an end to an era when Iker Casillas decides to leave Real Madrid, the only club he’s ever played for.

    There’s no other player in the world right now on the scoring run Cristiano Ronaldo is on with 8 goals in the first 4 matches of the Champions League this season, tying a 11 year-old record, showing a remarkable ability to look horrible for one half and then switch to dangerous with every touch later on as Real Madrid drew 2-2 with Juventus and pretty much punched their ticket to the round of 16.

    Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo Is On His Own

    Maybe it’s always been like this – Cristiano Ronaldo, and 10 more Real Madrid players just waiting for something to happen. Even in a relatively good performance from Los Blancos, the overall feeling left after the match is that without the Portuguese star, there’s really nothing special on a team that’s move valuable than any other in the world.
