"Did you just say that live on TV?" Thierry Henry left gobsmacked by Micah Richards' Newcastle comment

"Did you just say that live on TV?" Thierry Henry left gobsmacked by Micah Richards' Newcastle comment

Micah Richards stunned Thierry Henry as he talked up Newcastle vs Paris Saint-Germain

Thierry Henry was hilariously gobsmacked by Micah Richards' comment about Newcastle United ahead of their big Champions League showdown against Newcastle United.

Richards and his fellow CBS Sports pundits Thierry Henry and Jamie Carragher were on hand to provide expert analysis for Tuesday's Champions League games.

'Big Meekz' - as he's affectionately known - bantered with Jude Bellingham following his performance for Real Madrid against Napoli.

The CBS Sports crew also looked forward to the next evening - talking up PSG's visit of St. James' Park.

The team will be in Newcastle for the club's first home Champions League fixture for 20 years.

And Richards is looking forward to mingling with the Geordies to absorb the 'real culture'.

The Liverpool legend replied: "What is the culture?" To which the former Manchester City defender replied: "It's... drinking!"

Carragher and Richards burst out laughing as Henry weighed in, exclaiming: "Did you just say that live on TV?"



Newcastle take on the French giants, having opened their Champions League campaign with a goalless draw against AC Milan last month.

And ahead of hosting Kylian Mbappe and Co, Eddie Howe has said his team must contain their emotions.

"I think it will be a really memorable night and hopefully our performance will make it that way, too," he said.

"The fans will bring their positivity, noise, enthusiasm and love for the game. It's up to us to use that powerfully and positively on the pitch.

"You can use too much emotion on the pitch, but I think we've been getting that balance right at home."
