All, accompanied by this message: “Dear friends of CBS, thank you for your close attention to Brest’s performances since the start of the Champions League. We enjoyed watching you in the studio so we made a special 'Brest lover' jersey for Micah (Richards). We couldn't resist offering a Brest jersey to our legend Thierry Henry, to whom we send our warmest greetings. »
