Real Madrid midfielder Zinedine Zidane insists he won't kick up a fuss if he is named on the bench by coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo.
 
The French ace returned from injury for Real's 3-0 win at Atletico Madrid on the weekend and told AS yesterday: "For me there is no problem if I must be on the bench."

"It will not be a problem and it has never been so. And more so now, because surely I cannot play sixty or seventy games like when I was 22 or 23 years old."

"The important thing always has been the team and it continues being so. If we want to win something this year we must all think about the team, not about individuals."
