He's always looking for spaces and that's good. "He is a complete forward. He perhaps doesn't look like it sometimes, but he is."Kane is playing well, but Tottenham isn't just Kane and I'm sure they'll prepare their game well."Zidane's compatriot Hugo Lloris will be the man charged with keeping Madrid at bay on Tuesday and the former midfielder believes he could play a key role. "He [Lloris] will do everything he can to stop us winning," Zidane said. "He has improved a lot as a keeper and I think he'll have an important role in this game."But I will look more at us, and we want to cause difficulty to him. But it's not about one forward or one keeper. "It's [Tottenham] a very complete side, continually improving year after year. We know the coach has done a lot for them, they have a lot of resources to them at the moment and I'm sure it'll be a good game." Zidane was also asked about the comparison between the Premier League and LaLiga, claiming that football is rather more physical in England, but better in Spain. "Everyone has their own opinion," he said. "I always dreamt about playing in the Spanish league. I love LaLiga; you play with the ball a lot."It's a different type of football; the Premier League is more physical and when a team is physically very strong it has more chance of winning in that league."I think Spanish football is best. We want to go out and prove LaLiga is the best."</blockquote>
