Thierry Henry's Valentine's Day plans once left Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards completely shocked

Thierry Henry once revealed his plans for Valentine's Day.

Arsenal and France legend Thierry Henry once left Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards stunned by revealing his plans for Valentine's Day.

Whenever Champions League football takes place, the iconic trio of Henry, Carragher and Richards often join presenter Kate Scott (formerly Kate Abdo) on the CBS Sports panel.

The popular quartet have been key to the channel's coverage of Europe's premier club competition and have given fans some of the best TV moments in recent years.

Back in 2023, during a live show, presenter Scott quizzed the panel on their Valentine’s Day plans, and Henry’s answer left Carragher and Richards in fits of laughter.

When asked if he received a gift, Henry said whilst fixing his suit jacket: “Well hopefully when I go home something might be there.”

Henry’s answer definitely went down well with the panel; Carragher even leapt out of his chair.

The Frenchman quickly added: “No, I’m talking about flowers and chocolates. Your minds are wrong!”

Richards then gave a brilliant Valentine’s Day message down the camera, saying: “I just want to say, happy Valentine’s to me because I look so fly.” You can watch the segment below.


Reacting on social media at the time, one fan said: “I missed these guys, the energy, the vibes they bring is amazing.”

Another tweeted: “Thierry defo not expecting some flowers.”

A third fan added: “Best studio punditry team by far. Chemistry is natural.”

Someone else commented: “Thierry Henry is Goated for a reason lol.”

However, not everyone is a fan of Valentine's Day. Manchester United legend Roy Keane once branded it as 'overrated' when speaking on an old episode of The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet.

When asked by former Manchester City and England star Jill Scott if he celebrated Valentine’s Day, Keane replied: "No, it’s overrated."

Former United teammate Gary Neville then added: "It would have been a shock if you said yes, to be fair."
