You have to be objective on this one I think
I think Reina is better for us than Casillas would be as I think he has the trust of a relatively solid unit in from of him and is integral to Rafa's system, commincation, distribution and knowing the responsibilites of those around you are key elements to his game, he is also technically superb and is visibly improving.
I think Casillas is better for Real than Reina would be as he more agile and is rely's more on his reflexes, he plays more on the fly, and that suits the way Real play, as thier back 4 is in a constant flux, not as much as previous years but you still expect them to give away a few daft chances, even when they hammered Barca the other day, they still gave away a soft one.
I don't really know which one would suit Spain better, but Casillas is also the poster boy of the Spanish press and plays for Real, so he's automatically at an advantage.
It's a very good question and an interesting illustration of the differences between two world class goalkeepers.
