Thierry Henry, former France international player, have said another controversial opinion on Messi and Ronaldo, in a form of a parental advice.

He says that Thomas Muller is the best role model for football and for kids.

Thomas Muller is a Germany player in the last World Cup, where the said team won the championships over Argentina and most importantly, Lionel Messi, Henry has expressed his amazement for the young German, but says he does not get the recognition he deserves.

"Stepovers, tricks, that's not the game," Henry said in a press conference. "The game is what Thomas Muller is doing. If I had a son right now, playing, I would say to him 'look at them, look at [Franck] Ribery, look at Muller.'

"What Ronaldo does, and Messi, they're just freaks. Don't try to copy those guys. You can copy from Ribery, you can copy from Thomas Muller.

Hmm, it seems more of an insult than a compliment if I were Muller. It seems like he said Muller is just average.

Nevertheless, he backs himself up with this:

"What he did at the World Cup, people don't talk about it. They don't talk about it, but they should talk about it. He plays the game the right way: he defends, he attacks, he controls the ball when he has to control it, he reverses when he has to reverse it. When he has to finish, he'll finish.

"He doesn't do stepovers, but when he has to perform, he performs. He does what the game asks him to do."

The former Arsenal striker is now with the New York Red Bulls, which is a part of the Major League Soccer All- Star team. The said American squad is to square off with Bayern Munich this week.
