MICAH RICHARDS left co-hosts Kate Abdo and Thierry Henry confused as he ripped into Jamie Carragher during CBS’ Champions League coverage.
CBS’ coverage of the Champions League has gone famous the world over due to the electric chemistry between the pundits.
Fans have loved the chemistry of the CBS studio in recent years[/caption]
And one of the things that fans have loved so much is the pundits not being afraid to lay into eachother.
Yesterday’s coverage saw the CBS crew cover Newcastle’s trip to AC Milan and Manchester City‘s win over Red Star Belgrade.
And fans online were in stitches when Richards trolled his co-host, saying: “Can I just make a reference?
“We’ve been on air for five hours and we haven’t actually referenced that you should be doing Thursday nights.”
Both Abdo and Henry seemed a bit shocked that Richards would go there but Carragher came back and said: “I’ll do Thursdays if you do Wednesdays.”
But of course the whole thing was taken in good nature with the four laughing as they exchanged their typical banter.
Richards was referencing the fact that Liverpool failed to qualify for The Champions League last year for the first time since the 2015-16 season.
The Merseyside club finished fifth on 67 points, four points behind Newcastle in fourth.

It was the first time Liverpool have finished outside the top four while Klopp has been in charge for a full season.
The club’s Europa League campaign will kick off tomorrow when The Reds take on Austrian side LASK.
Fans on Twitter found Richards’ burn of Carragher hilarious, with one saying: “Big Meeks with the burn!” Alongside a laughing emoji
Another fan said: “Big Meeks needs his mate @alanshearer on board this season, get @Carra23 on the Thursday night shift.”
While a third said: “Such a shame we can’t watch this show in the U.K.”
The CBS team will be back tonight as they cover Real Madrid vs unlikely Bundesliga qualifiers Union Berlin and Bayern Munich vs Manchester United.
