Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly had recently suggested that European football could learn from American sports.

Todd Boehly had brought up an idea of an all star game every off season, as is done in the US.

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has joined other pundits to oppose the idea.

Reacting to Boehly’s suggestions on CBS Sports, Henry said: “Did he say a lesson? A lesson? What’s that supposed to mean? What are they trying to teach? A lesson? Are you a teacher or something?”

He continued: “The comment about De Bruyne and Mo Salah… just learn your own lessons and then come back and teach us something.”

When it was put to Henry that Boehly seemed to have really ‘irritated’ him, the Frenchman replied: “No he did that himself. Did I say that? He did.”

Expanding on why he has such disdain for the ideas, Henry added: “I don’t like them because this is Europe and it doesn’t work like that.

“Teams go up and down. All-Star game for what? I wouldn’t have liked to have [played in one]. Maybe [the public would like it] but you ask me and nope.”
