Micah Richards, Thierry Henry and Jamie Carragher are the dream trio on Champions League nights over on CBS Sports. The three former Premier League stars have wonderful chemistry with each other and the show’s main host, Kate Abdo. Clint Dempsey stepped in for Richards during the opening round of Champions League fixtures and the American slotted in seamlessly, but it still wasn’t quite the same without ‘Big Meeks’ on the panel.
Richards returned for Wednesday night’s round of fixtures, which included Manchester City vs Borussia Dortmund, and another evening of hilarity ensued.
The former England international has such an infectious personality and brings so much positive energy to whichever studio he’s working in.
He’s been a massive hit with viewers on Sky Sports, BBC Sport and CBS Sports over the past few years. CBS Sports do a regular segment on Champions League weeks called ‘In The Mixer’, where the show’s host asks the panel a series of quick-fire questions.
