Kate Scott savages Micah Richards with brutal Man City charges comment on CBS Sports
Kate Scott didn't hold back when introducing Micah Richards for the first CBS Sports Champions League night since Manchester City's guilty verdict.
After the three week long international break, European football returned with the second round of Champions League fixtures kicking off across the continent on Tuesday night.
As always, the beloved CBS panel of Scott, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher and Richards were on hand to cover Tuesday's action, but as the show got underway Scott decided she wasn't letting Richards have an easy start as she made a brutal comment about City's 115 charges.
Kate Scott shocks CBS Sports studio with brutal Man City verdict comment
Before each Champions League show, Scott always introduces the rest of the panel, sharing some of their best achievements while often taking the chance to tease Richards.

And given the fact that Tuesday night was the first Champions League night since it was confirmed that Man City had been found guilty of the majority of the 115 charges brought against them by the Premier League, Scott had to bring it up.
After heaping praise on both Henry and Carragher, Scott turned to Richards, saying: "Well this is awkward isn't it? He already has less accolades than anybody else on set...
"For now, he's still a Premier League winner and an FA Cup winner, until he has to mail those winners medals back to somebody at Stoke or Manchester United. What will he tell women then?"
All Richards could do was look down at his notes and accept the comments, as Henry muttered 'wow' as Scott continued her brutal take down.
Of course Carragher, who has been among the most outspoken against City since the verdict, was loving it as he simply laughed and applauded the comments.

Could Micah Richards lose his Premier League medal
While Scott's comments were clearly tongue and cheek and almost certainly taken as a joke by Richards, it doesn't mean that there isn't some element of truth to what she said.
The verdict relating to Manchester City's charges found that the club had breached Premier League regulations over nine years between 2009 and 2018.
In this time, City won three Premier League titles, three League Cups one FA Cup and the 2012 Community Shield.
Since the verdict, it has been suggested that one potential punishment could see City stripped of the trophies they won during this period,.
During this period, Richards was a part of the Man City squad for four of the seven major trophies, those being the 2010/11 FA Cup, the 2011/12 and 2013/14 Premier League titles, and the 2013/14 League Cup.
Although he technically wasn't given a winners' medal for the 2013/14 Premier League title, after making just two appearances, Richards would maybe lose his other medals if City were stripped of their trophies.
That being said, it's more likely that players would be allowed to hold onto their medals, with the club only being punished.
Of course, this all hinges on City's guilty verdict being upheld following the ongoing appeal process.
