Apart from yesterday, would it be unfair to say he was decisive in 5 other matches? Out of 17? Not at all, you could even argue that this was the case for even more matches.

The difference with the 8th place is 18 points; with other words: 6 matches. I don't think that's far off.


I know what you want to say, but this is like "What IF" and that's actually irrelevant. What if Barcelona not had bought Ronaldinho in 2003? Had they won La Liga and the CL? What about Barca without Messi this season, or the last one?

I don't think Real Madrid had got an random GK in the goal if not Casillas had 'excisted' and its just speculation on how things had been without him and him. However, that Madrid had been a team middle of the table in La Liga without Casillas....is still yet very controversial to say.
