Thierry Henry left Micah Richards in a heap of dizziness dizzy and Jamie Carragher in a fit of giggles as he showcased his football skills.
The three Premier League legends combine to make the perfect trio when the Champions League takes place. Appearing alongside the popular Kate Abdo for CBS' coverage of the most glamorous cup competition in the world, they regularly leave their viewers in fits of giggles.
However, the Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool aces were top players during their playing days as well. Just in case anybody was about to forget how good Henry was, the ice-cool Frenchman demonstrated his jaw-dropping quality at Richards' expense.

Henry was challenged to get in front of Richards so he could receive a pass from the former England international. Not only did the 46-year-old manage to scamper around the ex-City colossus, he managed to receive the pass before Richards had a chance to react.
Nevertheless, the 35-year-old ex-City defender appeared to have Henry exactly where he wanted him. Yet, in a flash, Henry took a step to his left and then a rapid one back to his right, completely bamboozling Richards.

Predictably, Carragher, 45, found the whole affair to be rather amusing. He could be heard cheering and laughing, while Richards looked at Henry with a face connoting a feeling of betrayal. After he sent Richards for a coffee, Henry said: "now, it's very important, because I hate it when strikers turn at the end of the game and say: 'we didn't have a chance, our midfielders didn't serve me'.
"What do you do for them? What can you do? How can you create your own space to be able to score, turn and see the game. That is also important."
Whether he needed to take Richards for a spin to make that point is a different question. At least Carragher found it all rather amusing.
