93 - Icon Moments
I recently completed the icon moments pack and packed Casillas. At first I was bummed because I didn’t want a gk even though it’s the only position on my team that I REALLY needed to improve. Anyways, I decided to give him a try and oh my. Being used to all keepers being trash in this game I found casillas to be a god. Of course he isn’t infallible and high percentage strikes will most likely go in, I say most likely because I have found that with him there is a higher chance than with other normal gks I’ve used (De Gea, Handanovic, Sirigu, Trapp…) that he will save you just when you think all is lost.
Of course he isn’t perfect and I can’t say he is the best gk in the game as I have not tried the other icon gks in the game except for Cech, who is also very good. The only slight disadvantage is the height (185cm) as sometimes I noticed that when my opponent shot from outside the box. Nevertheless, the high reactions and positioning and diving compensate for it as he is incredible in 1vs1 also due to his high speed and I found that there is a higher chance of him saving a chipped shot compared to other gks.
Overall I would give Casillas a solid 9,5/10. I believe that it is worth the price especially during tots as you can secure yourself an endgame gk that’s also great for links.
This is my first review. Thank you if you have read until the end!!
