Watching a programme on ESPN Classic here ...
Howard Wilkinson: Alright Alex, how's things? Any chance of selling Denis Irwin back to us?
Alex Ferguson: Nay chance pal. By the way, while yer on ... what about yer man Cantona?
Howard: Ah f**k, he's giving us all sorts of grief.
Alex: I'll give ye a million for him.
Howard: Done.
Yes you were Howard! ;D
Best foreign premier league player ever.
And just think that Jordan Henderson has just been bought for 15-20 times that!!!

Bergkamp, Henry and Zola were all fantasic players, but IMO Cantona was a class above everyone else.
This is back when I loved football, before money and women ;D destroyed the game!

Strachen told a good story about him a while back on tv....... Cantona had won man of the match that sunday the game was live on tv and i think he scored a hattrick.....anyway that night wee Strachen and the wife were out a walk around Leeds and walked by Cantona's apartment where he had first stayed and there's Eric out playing football with his kid banging the hattrick ball off the concrete wall ;D ;D ;D He also said in a recent interview he has no medals or any accolades from his playing days Legend! |

Was told last night that both had signed but don't take that as gospel. They are definitely losing a couple of key players though who will be very hard to replace
