Important thing is proper flare and not the thrust. Proper flare is substantially reduction in the rate of descent from say 700ft/mt to about 300 to 400ft/mt(to be assessed visually). After that thrust should be closed and before touch down a little more reduction. If speed is VLS or little less you need more pressure on the yoke to achieve that that's all, no need to keep thrust.
