this kiko fella wont play straight away, he'll need to get to grips with the Marcelo way, and learn english, and get to know his teammates, and work closely with BPF
We come away from a match where we dominated, kept a clean sheet despite a less than impressive performance from BPF, and there is this sh1te about signing someone who is thought (probably by that mega intelligent DoF), to be so much better but who hasn't actually played competitive football for over 7 F00KING MONTHS!!!
UN-F00KING-BELIEVABLE

Yes, he must be complete dog sh!t - you would have to be to have played for Spain at full international level, played in last years Champions League, played in the Uefa Super Cup Final & has a few medals to prove it:
Honours:
Real Madrid
La Liga: 2016–17
Supercopa de Espaņa: 2017[29]
UEFA Champions League: 2015–16, 2016–17, 2017–18
UEFA Super Cup: 2016, 2017
FIFA Club World Cup: 2016, 2017,[30] 2018
Since 2015 Casilla has made 43 appearances for RM, none this season. As Clive says, if he arrived (hopefully not), he wouldn't play for us this season, so what exactly is he supposed to bring to the table, apart form sporadic playing experience in a league we don't play in, from 2 seasons ago (a least)?
In 2018/19 BPF has made 24 appearances, getting between the sticks whilst having the defence in front of him change as often as a tarts knickers, for a club that is the second-most parsimonious in the league when it comes to conceding goals.
Amazes me, absolutely amazes me, that Forshaw can perform as he has over recent weeks, and yet he puts in a good performance against Derby and he's Lionel-f00king-Messie, Alioski, who has come in for criticism of the strongest kind for weeks is now some latter-day Norman Hunter because of the performance yesterday. I like the guy, despite his shortcoming, but come on, talk about chalk and cheese.
We don't need some cast-off third choice to keep BPF honest, we need a keeper who is playing in THIS division, currently, and be prepared to stump up to pay for that, IF there is an appetitite for that. Frankly, I'd rather see us spend on the outfield, and make sure the defence is stable
If it does pan out that will be a good signing.
Don't expect to see many more come in, maybe another midfielder/winger but that will be it I think.
Pick one of these;

Kiko is a lot better player than you think. He was Espanyol's undisputed no.1 for years before Real Madrid screwed him over. Lured him, like a few others back to Madrid with promises they did not keep. In reality, they were only brought in to fill the quota of "minimum 4 home-grown players" for the Champions League. If they mess up a player's career, so be it.
Gods bones! We used to slag players off before theyve started a match for us, now we are slagging them off before theyve even signed on the dotted line!
Wiil be a good signing.
WTF's knickers getting all knotted up and we ain't even signed him ffs
