'Only one got relegated!' - Gary Lineker SAVAGES ex-Man City star Micah Richards with cruel Match Of The Day comment

Premier League

Manchester City

Nottingham Forest

<p>The Match of the Day host took aim at his friend and fellow pundit for getting relegated with Aston Villa during his playing career. Lineker had introduced Richards and Hart as Premier League winners, to the delight of the pair, before pointing out the relegation in Richards' career. While Richards appeared upset with the joke, there was no bad blood between the pair.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Lineker said: "It's been a big day at both ends of the table, the top three and the bottom six all in action. Two Premier League winners in the studio, Micah Richards and Joe Hart... only one of them got relegated."</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">That was cold, <a href="https://twitter.com/GaryLineker?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@GaryLineker</a> 😅<a href="https://twitter.com/MicahRichards?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MicahRichards</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MOTD?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#MOTD</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/BBCFootball?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#BBCFootball</a> <a href="https://t.co/qgPsRGT0Nh">pic.twitter.com/qgPsRGT0Nh</a></p>— Match of the Day (@BBCMOTD) <a href="https://twitter.com/BBCMOTD/status/1852987830861193519?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 3, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT LINEKER SAID

<p>It was a big day in the Premier League with two of the top three sides mentioned by Lineker losing. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/pathetic-gabriel-martinelli-leandro-trossard-dreadful-gunners-alexander-isak-shows-mikel-arteta-broke-bank/blt75a4a1e78fc31e8f" target="_blank">Arsenal lost 1-0 away at Newcastle</a> before<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-bournemouth-kyle-walker-erling-haaland/blt4b1e2aaeae4d2816" target="_blank"> City fell to defeat by the same scoreline in Bournemouth</a>. The Gunners and City's slip ups allowed Liverpool to go to the top of the league, two points clear of the reigning champions. Meanwhile, Southampton picked up their first win of the season against Everton and Ipswich and Leicester shared the points in a 1-1 draw.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Richards and Hart's former club will travel to Lisbon to take on Sporting CP in midweek before a tricky trip on the south coast again to take on Brighton. City will be keen to bounce back from their shock defeat against Bournemouth.</p>

WHAT NEXT FOR MANCHESTER CITY?
