Daniel Sturridge was briefly thrown off during his live Sky Sports appearance on Sunday after a fire alarm rang out mid-broadcast.
The former striker was caught off guard mid-sentence while previewing the showdown between two of his old clubs, Chelsea and Liverpool.
The 35-year-old said: '[Chelsea] had the likes of Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka, and Andriy Shevchenko.
'We're talking about some of the greatest strikers in the history of the game...'
Sturridge was then cut off by host Kelly Cates as a fire alarm cut through the Stamford Bridge studio.
Cates explained: 'We should just point out to people we're not just sitting here blithely ignoring the fire alarm.
'It's just a test, they've already announced it, in case the microphones are picking those up.'
Sturridge, who remained composed throughout the brief interruption, smiled and nodded before continuing his analysis alongside fellow pundits Roy Keane and Jamie Redknapp.
The former England international added: 'It's obviously been an up and down season, as everybody's been aware of.
'They've had injuries to pivotal players in the squad, and how they've performed statistically this season is close to last year.
'So I wouldn't say it's been a terrible year, but I think the expectation would be that they would be performing better on the pitch.
'The performances aren't quite there, the football isn't quite how it should be, but I think... going forward, they will improve.
'It does take time, managers nowadays don't get as much time sometimes as they deserve.'
