JAMIE CARRAGHER and Thierry Henry hilariously recreated their viral moment seven years on from the original clip.
The Liverpool and Arsenal legends swept social media back in 2015 after Brendan Rodgers was sacked by the Merseyside club while the pair were live on Sky Sports.
When presenter Ed Chamberlin announced the news of Rodgers’ departure to the viewers, Henry proceeded to put his hand on Carragher’s thigh.
It was a clip which blew up the internet as people enjoyed the hilarious moment.
And the pair celebrated seven years since the memorable clip by reconstructing it during CBS Sports’ coverage of the Champions League on Tuesday night.
Introducing the original clip, Carragher said: “The best unmissable moment from seven years ago today. Let’s see it.”

After watching it, the ex-Liverpool defender added: “I should have filed for abuse there – manhandling me! I’m looking for help!”
Carragher then leant over and put his arm on Henry’s leg, before the former Arsenal and Barcelona man did the same to his fellow pundit.
The Reds legend’s exchange with Henry comes after he compared superstar Erling Haaland to the Arsenal icon following his hat-trick in the Manchester derby at the weekend.
Speaking on Sky Sports, he said: “When Henry first came on the scene or Cristiano Ronaldo, you would be going to players and you would be talking in training saying ‘wow! did you see that? Did you see that goal? How are you going to stop him?’

“I think mentally already after eight games, he’s in people’s heads.”
He then added: “There was only one player in my career who affected me mentally on a pitch and that was Thierry Henry.
“Henry, from 2002 to 2004, when I played against him I was only thinking about him and it affected my game.
“One of the most embarrassed I’ve felt on a football pitch was the goal Liverpool conceded at Highbury where Henry goes on a run and I sort of fall over and cower.
“I’m that embarrassed because that’s not me and it’s not my way of thinking, but it was the Thierry Henry effect.
“He’s making defenders not think ‘can I stop him from playing well or stop him scoring?’ Defenders are going into games thinking ‘don’t embarrass me!’

“That’s what I used to feel against Thierry Henry. If he scored or did OK, as long as he didn’t embarrass me, I’ll openly admit that.
“And that’s the effect I think he [Haaland] is having in this early stage of his Premier League career.”
