Thierry Henry commented on Manchester City striker Kevin De Bruyne's performance in the first leg of the Champions League last-16 against Real Madrid (1-1).
"I still think he is the most important player in this team. I have faced many players, I have faced some of the best. I think Kevin is the smartest player I've ever seen. His brain is in different places at the same time, I don't know what he's thinking sometimes.
Sometimes that can be a problem because you're not at that level. The way he thinks is just amazing. I've been following him for six years in and out of the Belgian national team. I can say a little bit more because I've seen the things he's done in training and in games. I still think about some of the things I've seen, he's from another planet and it wasn't his best game yet," Henri told CBS Sports.
