"You can change your wife, your politics, your religion. But you never, never can you change your favorite football team" - Eric Cantona.
Mm he was into poetry and art, Best was the same, incredible they'd be at the same club and such movers of the needle
I'm happy i was at the age to see Cantona in full flow. 26 years. He is is the first name in my all time United. No doubt
I was also a lucky enough to have the joy of the kings run in the man utd jersey. But despite i cannot deny that cantona is and will alwauys be in my Man utd allstar tean and imo mostly any English topp divisiuon / PL greatest team of all time selected by anyone without disablilities such as scousers-brain damage and or youngsters who bewlieve English football began in 2010 etc.. but one cannot make a team of greatest EPL players thru time without D. Irwin as well....
@@2PM.2024 Great shout. Left or right, attacking but also a top defender. The Quiet Man and Mr Reliable
I was there that night that poor excuse for a supporter came all the way down the stand and said some serious abuse about his mother It showed Eric as a human being. Long live the king
Was you really?
@@markjames2909 what's it got to do with you ?
He didn’t fucking hit him hard enough. What an absolute coward, he wouldn’t have had the balls to stand up to Cantona man to man.
An absolute disgraceful piece of shite.
His English must be very good to understand that London accent
Neah he was just a bully.And a sad one
He is an all time one of the greatest with a ball but his personality and character is even more special. A great person. So many people love him and it's so richly deserved.
Liverpool supporter here, who loved Catona. Still do, he's a great actor now too.
As a LFC supporter I always loved him too. Would have fitted, especially political, a little bit up the Mersey too. 🏴☠
Cantona knew he had arrived home when he signed for United. The fans loved him
I would also defend my mother. I did . Good done Eric. You will foreever stay one of mine footballheroes
met him in Amsterdam once (im a liverpool fan) he was a gentleman
An absolute beast of a footballer. Genius that I remember well as a kid!
Yep, cantona and bergkamp at that time were something else.
@Vincent Hambleton haha they were good but he was a lot better
@Vincent Hambleton hold on kevin keegan and hoddle I can understand Dalglish but them 2 haha
Have you ever meet Cantona, Simon?
@@andiisunited watched him live many times but never got to meet the great man unfortunately.
Eric was the whole reason i started following ManU, and i'm an Aussie
Picking teams based on a player is stupid. Pick your local team.
United need an Eric reincarnation right now...
@ rafer Jefferson iii....nah we choose UNITED!
@@RaferJeffersonIII that’s pretty harsh, considering im from Australia, soccer isn’t our number 1 sport.
🧂@scpython1
That 25 Jan 95 event changed the life and Career of Cantona forever, he was suspended for 8 month, he went home in France and started having Fun, neglecting training which lead to his retirement afterwards, he said: "I loved the game but I no longer had the passion to go to bed early, not to go out with friends, not to drink , not to do a lot of other things, the things I like in life".
He was only 30....😢...
In an Idyllic World Cantona would have won the World Cup 98 with France and Triple🏆in 99 with M.Utd and even the Ballon D'Or afterwards....
i always liked football but cantona was the player who made me love football, think as kids we all put our collars up taking a penalty haha
He's the reason I'm a United fan. seeing him as a 6 or 7 year old - collar up, chest out, an absolute God of a man.
Eric the King.
Yes, he's the man who make me support Man United since 1995 and I'm lucky have opportunity meet him for a few times after he retired. Have you ever meet Eric Cantona?
The Best I've seen in the last 40yrs watching this League and Man Utd.. the passion of waiting for the games were only when players like Eric was in the team.
I've meet him few times. I have to honest that when first time meet him I can"t say anything and I'm just like little boy who meet Superhero! He have fantastic charisma that no other player have. For me, he always be a King Eric...
Collar up chest out, he had a presence on the pitch few have matched, he owned the moment, the game was a performance and he was the leading man
Just a phenomenal player Eric Cantona was truly out of this world in what he could do with a ball pure legend😉👍⚽️
Bravo Cantona !!❤
Cantona, amazing footballer, amazing attitude
yep, he just had that something special about him, could make or score a goal out of nothing.
legends live forever in Manchester United
.......
i remember the 91st minute winner away at qpr jesus wow. i was in the car with my dad, coming back from a donny rovers game lol. listening on the radio it was a magic moment.
That ban from the FA was the straw that broke the camel’s back as far as Eric retiring they even had the cheek to extend it FFS! They took away his life his passion and he was never the same again sadly what an absolute legend thought All hail the King 🤴🏽
Taking this man from Leeds for just £1.2million was banditry of the most excellent order.
"When ze seegolz folloh ze tralluh....."
Loved him. Up there with the very best. That fan got what he deserved
Just one of a number of magical no.7s to play for united.. special
How strange it can get Cantona lose his head, but hey we love such character, he made it so easy to score goal yet has sheer class & cool head of his chip over the keeper stranded. Not every human has the same thinking, his vision, passion & hungry to entertain the fans worldwide are awesomely rewarded, down the memory lane , we have not seen anyone charmingly starstruck, an poet, actor and a man we called God of football. Victim of opposite fans frustration especially he was A French.
No surprisingly he was a Frenchman
Single handedly won the league. Memories....
the reason why i became the fan of the manchester united is eric cantona 7
This bloke was my hero at 12 and today i still think hes a hero. A falwed genius but a genius none the less
CANTONA
7
Well man u is the most famous club on earth by far n looking at the many great players they had its a title well deserve n of course their winning the treble that will never be bettered
This guy kick started the red wave, he was a class above every player in the prem back then.
Even his kung fu kick was class, bruce lee would have been proud of it.
@Vincent Hambleton Good job then eh
@Vincent Hambleton wow what a hard man you are
@@moodfm5673 the fan deserved it and a lot more what a prick I'm no utd fan but he eric cantona was unreal not like ya Ronaldo rolling about only player that matched him is messi
still love the joke, " wish someone would explain to cantona that a free kick in england dosnt mean someone in the crowd"
Had the FA not handed Blackburn rovers the title in 95 United would have won the title five years on the bounce.. some team and some player. Merci Eric le Roi ❤
Go cry somewhere else you little bitch 🥲🥲
This video injured neymar.
And always maintained that no-one not even him was ever bigger than Manchester United Football Club
Only a few Frenchmen I'd admire.. Amongst the most flamboyant player ever.
That fan totally deserved what happened, I know from being at PL games that some of the stuff that's shouted at any player can be vile at times, I'm actually surprised that more players haven't reacted like Eric did
That Matthew simmons the fan who had a go at Cantona said some truly horrible things to the player involving his mother,family members.
I don’t know of anyone who doesn’t stand up for their family.
The reason I know of the things that were said it was from a family member who worked for MUFC.
He got what he deserved Simmons.
Cantona.......💕🔥⚽️
As an Asenal fan Cantona for me is the best player i have ever seen
Arsenal had a genius of a player in bergkamp, him and cantona at that time were brilliant.
@Vincent Hambleton what?
The King!!!!
Eric Cantona - The Prophet
all number 7 in the 90s is beast
Eric cantona,One of the greatest Romani football players of all time.
He s french not romani😂
@@christophegauducheau9799he is from france but not a french ethnically.
66 was a great year for English football...
Eric was born
Eric Cantona king👑
Namamu kan slalu ku Kenang sepanjang Masa..

We'll drink a drink a drink
To Eric the King the King the king
THE GOAT!
When the seagulls follow the trawler 👍
Goals and assists wasn't selfish amazing player
The Best!!
Eric und George für immer!
The thing I love about this Frenchman Cantona is that HE IS REALLY FRENCH, and not .. oh well you know who when you see today's French national team.
@@juliad368 I didnt mean anythin about French people of colour as yourself who are true French, but about those who came to France "yesterday", means few years ago from French ex colonies and now they're French? Cammon..., T.Henry and players like him were/are true French players, but Im talking about you know who, and today's French "national" team is in fact a team of French Empire across the world and not French. P.S. You cannot compare African-Americans who founded USA togethar with Whites and Native Americans since day one of USA with France, which is nation/state thousand years old.
@@CroPETROforeverHR You're fully wrong about the french team of today. Actually not a single one of them even has a slight accent that could mean they were brought up outside of France. Unlike in the past, player like Trezeguet actually didnt have that great of a french language mastery. So yes, you are just being racist because you have no idea about what you're talking about. France has had african immigration for over 50 60 years, these guys are just as french as me. They grew up here, most of them have 0 links to their grandparents' country of origin. So grow up, and don't speak on subjects you have very little information about man, it's not a smart thing to do. You can disagree with immigration policies, but not deny people's identity and country just because of their skin color. They are french, end of story.
Magnifico... O talisma
Andy Gray” I don’t think the fans realise but selling Cantona for 1 million is good business for Leeds Utd “ yep really good business 😂😂😂 An absolute monster of a player !!
Andy Gray: fud
Genius
Greizmann kadar genious.. super forvet. Very smart. Neville englishbcoachm cantona film star in france.
I'm not even a ManU fan but I know he still is The King Of Manchester.
the reason i played with my collar up as a kid
The Best 7 Ever
Before I saw Pallisters name, I thought. Man, is Michael Owen really that old already?
There is that rumour on how things turned foul at Leeds Utd. All tempered by a vision of Alex Fergusson rubbing his hands in utter glee . " What's the price ?" A Govan boy learned in Aberdonian cattle trading ..such tightness paying for real quality ... "aye jist sign there son " 👍
Amazes me how he’s never I the best premier league player ever conversation..
The first Real "superstar" of the English Premier League
There is a GOD 💪🏻
Legend enough said greatest ever player Cantona cr7 Ronaldo Scholes giggs Keane irwin scmichel rooney Charlton best law beckham stam ferdinand vidic evra van der sar hughes Ince bruce de gea neville ....
I don't understand what U r trying to say
@Vincent Hambleton Utd were craps in the 70's
“King Of Manchester?”…🤣 KUNG KU KING more like!!! ……HI YAAAAA!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
MU's Golden Era.
Utd won FA until Cantona showed up.
Alex Ferguson gets all the plaudits for Utd's success.For his first five seasons they done nothing and then Cantona arrived.
sorry pal but! i was at wembley for fa cup 1990 and rotterdam 91. Amazing nights. United were really building a great set up. Cantona was the icing on a well made fergie layer cake. ince, Schmeical, bruce and pallister, mclair and hughesy etc etc. This was great team in the making
@@tjlawren1 Cups & trophies are nice but it's all about winning the league championship
Fergie is obviously the reason for all the success. 1) it was fergie who brought in cantona 2) then fergie won the treble without him!!
And they almost won it the season before Cantona arrived. So they were already a great team. Cantona was just the cherry on top of an already good team. When Cantona left, they still won the treble.
i used to go with my father 😍
king forever
My idol on Man UTD
MUFC .
We leave behind us a trail of destruction.
Wish One Day Eric Cantona MANAGE MANCHESTER UNiTED....'OPINION' .. Movie. SEVEN 7. ' D' SiN
French would win every world cup today.
A one off footballer and man - and that's saying something about a Frenchman
the press/media were the seagulls by the way haha.
yep. they see cantona and thing story, lol
As much as I love Eric.......Denis Law is the only King
For you. For me Eric is the king.
Yes, Eric is up there with the best. But he should never have been handed Denis Law´s title. That should have lasted forever.
I was surprised when United fans made that decision.
Whose better Best or Cantona ?.
ibrahimson's idol
Cantona 7
I would like ‘KING CANTONA’TO BE MANUnited manager if ole want to stap down
Lawman is the King no one else end of
Which music is at the starting!?
A lot of player where simply just as good and better.
players* were*::)
@@moodfm5673 Zidane, Messi, Cafu, Souarez, Torres, Beckenbaur, Dalglish, Debroyne, Maradonna...Are you a member of the Prawn Sandwich Brigade, or what Mucker?
2 things Johnno, get in the real world and learn to spell.
@@johnnogee6683 Torres hahahahahah
@@Kloppsserialbottlers Giggs...Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahah I think you should call Dickheads Anominous lol Have another Prawn Sandwich lol
Pallister was 💯 correct
Who is he??
Watch the video kid
Dennis Law was the king! Best, Law and Charlton no one compares!
There was only one King. He is a wee Scottish gent
Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool. Grow up.
Thug
King of Manchester he may well have been but NOT in Europe. 🤣
@@juliad368 yes it's obvious Manchester is in Europe, I'm talking about Eric's exploits for man utd in the champions league or lack of it.
There was only one King at Man Utd. Denis Law.
Eric was a step above everyone I saw, I did not see Law play though. For me Eric is the best ever in any sport I ever followed. Absolute genius and clutch master.
Close thing I would say
Cantona or Ronaldo? Cantona!!!!
Merci.
King = Cantona
Le francais plus anglais qu un anglais
