Casillas: Real Madrid need Robben fit
Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas was delighted for Arjen Robben after his stunning winner against Villarreal on Sunday.
Casillas said: "He is a very good player for us: electric, fast, destabilizing. It is clear that when he is injured, the team notice it. There is a lot of attention to the physical problems he has.
"His goal was fantastic, one of those ones that usually you only see in training."
Asked about heavy criticism of his own performances this term, Casillas shrugged: "I've played 10 seasons in a row in the Primera. It is normal to have one, two or three bad months."

Robben ON-FORM is the best winger in the world.
Robben is FANTASTIC but injury wants to ruin his carrier. i pray he dosn't get injured again for a long time.
Robben's constant injuries was the main reason why Chelsea sold him to Real Madrid. He was earning millions for sitting on the treatment table for half a season. A fantastic player when fit, and Chelsea rarley lost a game with him in the side. Looks like Real are finding this out for themselves now........
