Madrido "Real" coach Zinedine Zidane, talking about Toni Kroos, clearly showed that he did not always have bad relationships with Gareth Bale. Z. Zidane praised the German for his calmness on the field and mentioned the players he had the privilege to train. "Kroos is an incredible player. He can play in any midfield position. His main quality is calmness. He never feels tense. Also, I am amazed at how easily he can play with both feet," explained Z. Zidane. "Tony's whole life is football and family - everything else doesn't matter to him. He will be remembered as a wonderful player, maybe even one of the best in his position. I am glad that at the beginning of my coaching career I had the opportunity to train Kroos, as well as other players - Ramos, Cristiano, and Bale. It is an honor for me that among these guys I also trained Toni," added the Frenchman.
