"I felt the ghosts of the past in Manchester United....some players it can paralyse them....but for me it was helpful. I felt the energy of the ghosts, I felt the energy of the past, it makes me even stronger" And THAT is why Eric was The King.

I'm a City fan but Eric is a big memory of my childhood. Remember him at Leeds and he was good, but he was something else at Utd. The confidence/arrogance/style was another level. Reminds me of Ibrahimovic a lot. Could watch that chip and lob over and over.

Not even looking for attention but my dad who is going through cancer treatment at the moment, cantona was his favourite player. I was born in 1990 so I remember vaguely bits from his time at United. Seeing this has made me abit emotional not gona lie it’s just mad how they chose cantona at this time. One of my fondest memories of my childhood was when me, my dad & brother went to giggsy’s testimonial against Celtic & cantona came on as a sub and no one knew he would be appearing, safe to say my dad was ecstatic when he came on, thanks bt sport for doing this, I’ll be showing my dad this when I see him tomorrow!

Best wishes to your father. Eric was never, ever in a hurry. The game revolved around him. He magnetised it. The nearest player to him probably is Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but he hasn't had the profound impact upon a club and its culture, identity, quite like Cantona.

As an expat from Lancashires who lives in France, I have to say Eric is typically French. We English give the French stick but the average French bloke is a lot like an average English bloke (except they can’t dance :)). Eric knows how he left Leeds……he was a ladies’ man….on his own patch.

I love Cantona. I'll say that upfront. And I'm not a Utd fan. The thing I would say is that in terms of football he was a good...not great player. He had skills yes but he lacked pace. Utd fans love him because he led a team of young players to Utds first PL title and other domestic trophies. But he was largely ineffective in Europe. He was the right player at the right time for Utd. And beyond football he was a cultural icon. I love Cantona for many more reasons than what he achieved in football.
