Heynckes: I advised Kroos to stay at Bayern =================================== Former Bayern Munich boss Jupp Heynckes has lamented the loss of Toni Kroos to Real Madrid, revealing that he tried to persuade the midfielder to remain in Bavaria instead of join another of the coachs former haunts. The 69-year-old told Kicker: At the moment, there is no better player in his position in the world. Toni plays the midfield role so cleverly. I would have rather seen him remain at Bayern and I had advised him to. But in a telephone call during the World Cup he told me that the move was perfect. For him, personally, its another step that suits him. Heynckes, though, is not in the least bit surprised that Kroos has already established himself as a key cog at a club he guided to Champions League glory in 1998. The top stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale know very well that they are even better with Toni in the team, he argued, In addition, Real coach Carlo Ancelotti has said that he has never seen a team with such wonderful character. So there have been no problems with integration for Toni. Goal ===================================== Rayah
