Liverepool legend Jamie Carragher says Thierry Henry was left stunned by his failure as AS Monaco coach.
Henry is now in charge of Montreal Impact.
"I could see the itch whenever I saw Thierry Henry, I could almost see the embarrassment on his face," Carragher told Sky Sports.
"You could almost feel he was a bit embarrassed by what happened at Monaco, he'd try to tell you the reasons, whether they were reasons or excuses, that's what people have to do as managers, it just eats them up.
"Three months at Monaco has probably consumed him that much that it's possibly forced him to move to the MLS, maybe he's moved away from his family, all to prove that he can be a manager and he wants to be a manager in the future."
