Marcus Thuram believes that Kylian Mbappé is not really the best striker France has ever known.
Does Marcus Thuram have a grudge against Kylian Mbappé? Eventually, we will end up believing it. After declaring that he preferred Lautaro Martinez to the PSG star, Lilian’s son has just indicated that the Bondynois is not better than Thierry Henry.
Henry better than Mbappé, really?
By answering a furtive questionnaire for Goal Italy, where he was asked to compare position by position the 1998 world champions to that of 2018, the former Guingamp player made it known that Thierry Henry is stronger than Mbappé.

“Titi” is a legend of French football. And he was for a long time the top scorer in the history of the Blues (for 15 years). However, in terms of ratio, there is no comparison between him and the Bondyn crack. In the national jersey, the ex Gunner has 0.41 goals/match, while Mbappé 0.61.
Thuram also conceded that he preferred Zinedine Zidane to Antoine Griezmann. He also placed Fabien Barthez ahead of Hugo Lloris. And finally, his father Lilian Thuram is a better right-back than Benjamin Pavard in his eyes.
