According to the Castrol Index, Major League Soccer's latest metric for measuring individual success, New York Red Bulls Designated Player Thierry Henry is off to a stellar start in his first full season in the league.
The Castrol Index is designed to analyze each player's every movement on the field and how those movements impact a team's penchant for scoring goals and conceding goals.
Henry ranks as the top player in MLS according to the most current Castrol Index. He's followed by Steve Zakuani, David Ferreira, Omar Gonzalez, Atiba Harris, Danny Califf, Donovan Ricketts, George John, Bobby Boswell and Diego Chaves.
A full list of the league's 373 ranked players can be seen here.
