Carlos Vela: The New Thierry Henry?

There is nothing wrong in drawing this kind of comparison. However, I am surprised to see that some people have gone as far as comparing him with Thierry Henry. Carlos Vela has just played only one game for arsenal and he played superbly. There is no doubt about that. However, you have to remember that It was a Carling Cup match and it was not a very big game. It was not against a big opposition like Manchester united or Chelsea. So, I do not like to jump into conclusion just after one game against the minor opposition.

I think that the media should be more cautious about getting this kind of publicity to a young player who is just too young. It may harm him in the long run instead of inspiring him to become the next Thierry Henry.
