Micah Richards recently made a light-hearted jab at Nigel Reo-Coker while fulfilling his responsibilities for CBS Sports on live TV. During a segment in which the 39-year-old Reo-Coker questioned why Zinedine Zidane’s name had not been mentioned more frequently in discussions about managerial vacancies in Europe’s top clubs, Richards humorously imitated Reo-Coker’s manner of looking down at a piece of paper while asking the question. The entertaining exchange generated amusement among viewers.
The chemistry and camaraderie between the two former footballers was evident, with Richards explaining that their dynamic involves mutual trust and understanding. They shared insights into their working relationship, emphasizing their ability to engage in a friendly back-and-forth without crossing any boundaries. Richards also expressed appreciation for their shared comedic sensibilities and the freedom to engage in self-deprecating humor.
We trust each other on the serious and analytical stuff. When we have trust in a person. Sometimes we go back and forth.
Some viewers think we’re mad at each other, but it’s just like two friends having an argument. “Because we work together for Sky and CBS we have great chemistry. We understand each other.
We know where the line is, but we can both be self-deprecating. If I say something to someone else they may take it to heart, but I know with him, he just rolls with the punches and knows where I am coming from,” Richards explained.
