Pros

Excellent Diving & Shot-Stopping

Casillas showcases rapid diving ability and sharp reflexes, making him highly reliable in dealing with close-range shots. He responds well to quick attempts on goal, especially those within his body frame.

Strong Against Power Shots & Long Shots

He holds up impressively against long-range efforts and power-driven shots. His shot-stopping from distance is one of his standout traits, often denying goals that beat most keepers.

Top-Class Positioning

One of his strongest assets. Casillas maintains excellent positional discipline, aligning himself well for incoming shots and adapting quickly to attackers’ movements.

Exceptional Handling 

Rarely spills the ball after saves. His clean handling reduces rebound chances and helps retain possession under pressure, especially after saves in the box.

Reliable Distribution & Kicking

Casillas is quite effective with ball distribution. His kicks and goal throws are accurate, aiding quick transitions and counter-attacks—very useful in Head-to-Head modes.

Elite Reflexes

Arguably among the best in-game for reflex saves. He reacts instantly to fast low shots or sudden close-range attempts, giving him a major edge in One on one situations and VSA situations.

Quick Off the Line

When rushing out, Casillas sprints rapidly to close down attackers. This is particularly helpful in breakaway scenarios, where his speed narrows the angle and often forces a mistake from the striker.

Cons

Lacks Long Thrower Trait

While his kicking is solid, the absence of the Long Thrower trait limits fast rollout options, which can slightly slow down play from the back compared to some GKs.

Not the Tallest

Standing at 6’1” (185 cm), Casillas is shorter than many top-tier goalkeepers in FC Mobile. This can occasionally make him vulnerable in aerial duels, high crosses, and long-range finesse shots toward the top corners.

Finesse Shots Are a Challenge

He can struggle with well-placed finesse shots that curl into the far corners, especially from top attackers with high curve and finishing.

Conclusion 

Casillas is a reliable and agile goalkeeper who excels in reflex saves, close-range shot-stopping, and overall positioning. His quick reactions and strong handling make him a safe choice in most match ups, particularly in VSA and H2H. However, his relatively shorter height and lack of long thrower ability might be noticeable in certain scenarios. Still, for those who prioritize agility, reflexes, and positioning over physical presence, Casillas is a top-tier option.

Rating: 8.5/10
