Thierry Henry has hit out at Chelsea owner Todd Boehly for suggesting Liverpool and Manchester City stars Mohamed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne were a product of the academy at Stamford Bridge.
American Boehly has already suggested what he would do to change the Premier League with the introduction of a north vs south All-Star match, stating a "lesson" could be learned from how American sport operates.
If the suggestion of an added match into the fixture list wasn't enough, Boehly believes Salah and De Bruyne came through the system at Chelsea despite them being sold after failing to make the grade early on in their careers.

Chelsea's owner said earlier in the week: “We’ve got one of the best academies in the world. Our academy is Mo Salah, Kevin De Bruyne, Tammy Abraham, Reece James, Mason Mount, Trevoh Chalobah.”
Former Arsenal star Henry fired back at Boehly on CBS Sport: "“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.”
Salah joined Chelsea as a 22-year-old from Basel, but spent just a season in London before being sent on loan and sold while De Bruyne followed a similar story.
