Iker Casillas

Genuine question, if we could get him instead of Hart, would anyone have him?

I love Joe, but Iker is the best in the world when he's playing regularly. Madness to turn him down if we have a shot.

ilker casillas , has to be probably one of the most overrated keepers ever! he's a good keeper but I wouldn't put him in the world class bracket, he's just a decent goalkeeper who has always had a pretty decent defence in front of him,but when that defence has ever cracked he's always looked abit shaky to me.

I remember watching him at 20 years of age keeping goal for Real Madrid...the lad is class, always has been...always will be

you remember watching him at 20 years of age? I believe he is now 32.quite some time has passed since then. if he played for levante nobody would be saying he is class. he's good but nothing special like people make him out to be.
 
I do question Hart at the moment as it has been nearly a season since he has started to become mistake prone.

That Dortmund home game was the making of him on the European and World stage, but has also been the creator of his downfall. I just think Hart is at a period of his career where top players can become elite or go back to been average again, it's overcoming the hype surrounded by your success and not letting yourself get complacent.

If Hart does end up having a bad season overall this season though questions should be asked about a replacement in my opinion.

I would love to see Hart and Casillas battling it out for the number one shirt, but I doubt it will happen, I do think Casillas will be subject to a few bids this week.
 
Casillas is not anywhere near as good as Joe. His size is a real issue for him and always has been on crosses, by playing for Madrid he has been protected for many years, he has been replaced at Madrid for a reason. In the Premier league he would be even more exposed and be a liability for any side
 
Well if I remember correctly Hart once said Iker is his hero ...so why not sign him and let Hart improve with him one on one ?
Its a win win situation
 
Interest pretty much confirmed :

If it's true, it'll be probably the biggest kick up the arse Joe could get
