How tall is casillas from real madrid




















Some people, well visitors might not know their height, so can't really offer an opinion. But it is useful seeing a lot of guesses on new pages. The Proof!!! So ur saying that she might b near 5'7"? Tony, yes cm is very likely Cristiano could be stretching but I doubt much that his medicals are under of mark. Marcelo was 18 he was Tony, range is possible, but I think she has a little bit lesser posture than Iker has.

At the beginning I had your same opinion because Ronaldinho was clearly shorter than Beckham in the pics I saw, so would fits him. But later i checked some pics of Ronaldinho and mike Tyson real cm in the same footwear and Ronaldinho was always an inch taller.

So I'm very doubtful about him. Truth can be in the middle at about cm; but for what I saw he can be anywhere between and That's why I asked Rob to make him a page: for see the average guess height about him :. You also claim Ronaldinho is 1. Don't you see the contradiction? Ronaldinho is shorter than Pato, how can he be 1. I don't know why do you have to inflate his height with no evidence. Click Here Your 1. He is kinda similar to 1.

Ronaldinho is a legit 1. He is 1. He is shorter than Pato, so he is obviously less than 1. I mean in his interviews he always says "he is in shoes" I think that is, because he has always been criticized for being a short goalkeeper. He probably would like to be 6ft3. This listing fits him better. A legit 5. When you compare him to Ramos a 6ft weak 6ft guy, and Beckham, a 5. Now he is cm. Ronaldinho is similar to Guardiola cm no more than 1 cm apart.

He is always lying about his height, his cm claim is absurd. On the medicals Ramos was listed as cm when he is minimum 2 full cm taller than Iker. Those medicals are innacurate.

Morning height: But your estimation of Ronalinho's height is wrong. Ronaldinho is shorter than 1. He is clearly taller than Raul who has always been listed cm tall. I still feel like 5'11 is closer, but a quarter inch difference is a margin of error. It's cool how the world's legendary goalkeeper is shorter than you haha.

Ronaldinho, maybe in the future he will get a page, he could be nearly 5ft So Robbi, let's make it official and add the Ronaldinho page at 5 ft 11 :. Kourosh 5'9. He is therefore no taller than cm. Nobody is around claiming evening nor saying less height than in medicals According to other sources he is 1. Seems very close to Beckham as well. I guessed him as cm.

Really humble down to earth guy. De Gea is listed always 6ft and that is a joke if we compare him with Federer! But the more I look at him the more I see 5ft How much difference do you see between Casillas and Ronaldo?

But I can assure Barthez is cm, he is listed like that, nowadays as a car driver in official web of his car team. Here he does look a tad shorter thanFabien Barthez who always looks no taller than 5'11" Click Here I think maybe Barthez has a small advantage but for sure a cms next to a cms doesn't seems as Casillas next to Barthez The article is when he was just turned But the medicals are at the beginning of the season Click Here.

I have the leaked listing of Real Madrid: And I have the listing when he was 15 years old he was Cadete not even junior and he was listed cm in a magazine. Also looks the exact same height as Di Maria cm and Benzema, strangely think he claims cm too.

Looks 2 clear inches shorter than Ronaldo in the photo Johnny posted. I'm saying cm at most. Leonardo 1. Maybe cm, but I don't he's lower than that. He doesn't look tall enough to be 5' Here's why: This is from a Real Madrid's calendar Casillas being 22 years old.

Here Casillas is listed as 1. Con los tacos mido 1,86" Translated: "I am 1. In sneakers I am 1. Thanks so much for adding him Rob. Thanks for exposing this height liar. To lie about your own height is extremely immoral. Gianluigi Buffon described Casillas as the best goalkeeper of his era with his hands.

He was also known for his ability to save the ball with his feet, with former goalkeeper Manuel Almunia likening him to compatriot Luis Arconada, who also served as an inspiration to Casillas, and to whom he was often compared throughout his career, due to his quick reactions, movement, and excellent footwork.
