Former Arsenal star Henry Thiery has taken a swipe at Chelsea’s new owner Todd Boehly following some amendment he called for in the English football league.

Boehly came under massive criticism after he suggested that the traditional three-up-three-down relegation format should be replaced by a four-team tournament.

The American billionaire also called for a North vs South All-Star match as he went on to say Mohammed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne were developed by Chelsea.

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?

“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 explained: “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.”
