THE SOCCER SATURDAY squad reunited for drinks – two years after being split up on the telly.
Matt Le Tisser posted a selfie on Twitter alongside fellow former pundits Phil Thompson, Paul Merson and Charlie Nicholas as well as host Jeff Stelling.
The quintet were all smiles as they sat around a table together.
Le Tissier captioned the Twitter post: “Work with my mates, nothing better.”
The former footballers were long-standing pundits on the Sky Sports show for many years.
However, the broadcaster sacked Le Tissier, Thompson and Nicholas in a shake-up in 2020.

Southampton icon Le Tiss claims he was given the boot because of his views on coronavirus – but insists he “not a nutter”.
The 53-year-old said: “I went into working in the media from 2002 onwards until late August 2020, which was an interesting scenario where I lost my job.
“Obviously the pandemic started in 2020 in March – and very early on in that I had my doubts as to what was really going on.
“I felt early on there was a massive overreaction to it by the governments.

“And that’s where it all started for me with questioning the narrative and probably ended up with me losing my job at Sky.”
Merson remains part of the popular show as the lead studio pundit.
He is joined by the likes of Michael Dawson, Clinton Morrison, Matt Murray and Sue Smith.
And despite initially announcing his intention to quit at the end of last season, Stelling – presenter since 1994 – remains in charge of the panel with his quick wit and incredible stats.
