The celebrities are all one-trick ponies...Never "Celebrities" in the true sense. Indeed, being called a "celebrity" these days is tantamount to being insulted.
“I am not a man, I am Cantona.” “An artist in my eyes, is someone who can lighten up a dark room. I have never and will never find difference between the pass from Pelé to Carlos Alberto in the final of the World Cup in 1970 and the poetry of the young Rimbaud. There is in each of these human manifestations an expression of beauty which touches us and gives us a feeling of eternity.”
I get goose bumps whenever I watch old footage from the Cantona era, I was lucky enough to be a teenager in the 90’s and he was mine and all my mates hero, we all wore our shirts with the collar turned up and tried to replicate his skills when playing football. I don’t know of any of club/player relationship like United’s with Cantona and vice versa (Maybe Napoli and Maradonna) we still love him and sing his name 27 years after he retired, and he still loves us. Long live King Eric, the best to ever wear our shirt and my all time favourite player.
Not just the greatest ever at united. Cantona is the greatest footballer of all time, period.. what a player, human being , orh arh Cantona.. never see another player like him, no one can do the things he used to on the pitch ever.. his vision, was from another planet.. my favourite goal of his, was the fa cup final againts liverpool..
Broke me heart when he announced he was retiring.. Absolutely phenomenal footballer, best player I've ever seen grace the pitch , and luckily i was there at his testimonial..iwish some things would just never change..
Unbelievable footballer. Today not being unable to kick him, tackle hard etc… he would be unbelievable. His numbers, his influence would be even more than it was then. King Eric.
I still miss him even now. A personality beyond the typical realms of the average sportsman or celebrity. In a world of footballers whose excellence is generally down to the input of many other people, his is entirely his own work 💚
You're right folks - Liam is a total City lad' but.....he's no plonker and loves Manchester regardless, he has a humble ability to realize and appreciate when an artful Frenchman without parallel ruled once... Eric the King - that goal against Liverpool in the '96 FA Cup Final - Just wait until you see better, don't hold your breath now...
It doesn't matter how many big million pound players come into the Premier league like haaland and people like him there will never be any as good as cantona legend
The best ever at Manchester United. charisma in oodles and more talent in one foot than the whole of the Manchester City team . Never be another one as good.Perfectionist and perfect .
Surly , The irony is Liam Gallagher as a massive Man city fan using a United legend in his video once. While portraying Cantona as lord of the manor and himself as butler and chauffeur 🤷♂️🤣🤣, but what ever the irony I love it.. I loved oasis and Liam , I love Cantona as a United fan. As far as Gallagher’s being City fans I couldn’t care less. They produced amazing music. The football side is totally irrelevant really
So that is where Liam got his 'SHUDDER' from, Cantona, as a life long mcfc maine road fan, wow, he was The King back in that day Cantona believe me, from a lifelong 43 year old Manchester lad.
What a time to grow up watching this first hand back when players could play ...and change a game ...to much philosophy and systems and tactics over coached ...mowadays ...or maybe i am just an old fart ...ooh aaah ...
The best thing Cantona did for Football was showing that arsehole Crystal Palace "fan " what he thought of him: He did Millions of true supporters a fantastic service. Still love you Eric.... Fabulous human being...Stay good my friend...my favorite French person on the planet!
1:40 is just my favorite goal of all time. Four second build up, three second flight of the ball directly to the top corner of goal : to me it says “Football.”
Jesus. Football will never be this good again, footballers will never be as charismatic again. Too many celebrities not enough players
Never a truer word said.
The celebrities are all one-trick ponies...Never "Celebrities" in the true sense.
Indeed, being called a "celebrity" these days is tantamount to being insulted.
Cantona is the last maverick they've allowed in football.
We only have social media pansies these days..
Better days

Almost tear inducing how far football has sank,Charisma, intelligence,talent,integrity,arrogance,honesty,talent,love,now only greed and weakness.
NONSENSE .
When men were men.king Eric what a player not like today's pansy boys
I remember seeing an interview with him in the 90's. They asked him about his fans. He was nearly crying. A true legend!!
I get goose bumps whenever I watch old footage from the Cantona era, I was lucky enough to be a teenager in the 90’s and he was mine and all my mates hero, we all wore our shirts with the collar turned up and tried to replicate his skills when playing football.

Big man, big player, beautiful mind, intellectually honest!
Broke me heart when he announced he was retiring.. Absolutely phenomenal footballer, best player I've ever seen grace the pitch , and luckily i was there at his testimonial..iwish some things would just never change..
well much better than him around now . take ya blinkers off .
Who's better now then than Cantona.no one in my opinion
💯 hes my captain (in my top 11 and my fifa squad 😅)
United most influential player ever. Inspired a generation
The finest footballer I’ve ever seen.A true legend,never forgotten and always forgiven.
You obviously never saw George Best.
He was and always be ,"The King of Old Trafford "We'll ever see his talent ever again
As a United fan the Cantona era was the best
Unbelievable footballer. Today not being unable to kick him, tackle hard etc… he would be unbelievable. His numbers, his influence would be even more than it was then. King Eric.
superb when he slapped the palace fan..... and im a palace fan...lol...... great entertainer... well missed
I still miss him even now. A personality beyond the typical realms of the average sportsman or celebrity. In a world of footballers whose excellence is generally down to the input of many other people, his is entirely his own work 💚
Me too! Those days are gone 😶
There's only one king Eric a true living legend
Legend! Football genius . LFC fan
@@paulmg6031 I was always an Arsenal fan, but Cantona was my hero.
The king is Steven Gerrard come on Liverpool
🤔Gerrard hero was Eric Cantona🤣 United united united 🤫
Bang on bro! His name will be sang forever! Wearing the best suits up on the cat walk, as the leeds fans they just frown!!!
Pure class, if you dident see it how could you belive it.
Long live the king. Still using that man utd tshirt from 1997, cheers from Uruguay.
Feels like a dream ...all those memories. THANKS ERIC .....WE STILL LOVE YOU .
The reason I love united, the reason I am a Liam Gallagher fan. Thanks for the video
You're right folks - Liam is a total City lad' but.....he's no plonker and loves Manchester regardless, he has a humble ability to realize and appreciate when an artful Frenchman without parallel ruled once...
Eric the King - that goal against Liverpool in the '96 FA Cup Final - Just wait until you see better, don't hold your breath now...
king eric thank you god i wish you all the best in everything you do once again we thank you
It doesn't matter how many big million pound players come into the Premier league like haaland and people like him there will never be any as good as cantona legend
The ‘pass’ he plays at 1.20 and then Irwin’s finish is fucking sublime
I think that’s probably the best pass I’ve ever seen
And no better man than Irwin to finish. Great players
His favourite moment ruclips.net/video/H_uzU85htH4/видео.html
We were there to c the king legend never forget the 90s 👍
2 legends who makes each other's even more biblical
Privilege to have watched Eric Magical memories
Legend from a Lfc fan, Liams not bad as well ;) ❤️
Biggest rockstar in football ever!
A living legend 💪
Eric the King ... Liam the King ..!!
love this ! he was a god to us !
I am a Lifelong Manchester City fan! And Eric is one of the GREATEST players I have ever watched at a football match! dx
You never saw them real United greats then?
The best ever at Manchester United. charisma in oodles and more talent in one foot than the whole of the Manchester City team .
Never be another one as good.Perfectionist and perfect .
Bitter not with the surname....
Ever thought of being a stand up comedian?
@barryh.4220 Yes ,I have lots of work,'specially from Pep Quardiola 😀
@@sandraoyns-wilson6098 But surely the biggest comedian, aside from yourself of course , is Tin Pot Hag, the deluded rag???
Ooh Ah number 7. Idolised him at Utd and still do. They will always sing his name at Old Trafford!
As a barca fan, I love this man, The King. Eric Cantona
Collar up, back straight, chest out..walking on.
Forever our King.
Benoît. Mon Oncle adoré ! 😊😘
Show people love, get the best out of them. Here is a prime example!
This guy made untd him and sir alex match made in heaven wat a player wat a manager dont support utd but these two how can yu not admire them
Eric the great Wow what a steal Fergie knew the score getting him What a master stroke
Good music,good old days
Loved that you used the piano Radio 1 session (I think??) rather than the album version, it's a bit simpler and stark and so beautiful! Amazing.
Lost on most
Once
Childhood hero! Even called my dog after him.
Who wouldn't named my Rottweiler after him.KiNG❤
Minu meelest on äge mängia kas parim kahtlen aga ägedam seda küll!!,👍👍👍🇪🇪
One of the greats of football
Bloody hell. The one and true King wow. Never be another like him.
Great song Liam
Ooooo aaa cantona
I bet Mathew Simmons doesn’t download this gem.
I didn’t realise how good this guy was at the game HE WAS NAUGHTY man …. what a baller 🙏🏻❤️
Eric the red ,one of the best players ever ❤
Love the irony of using a city fan's music on a Cantona video.
.....and they say those Yanks don't understand Irony.! 😉✌🏻
Surly , The irony is Liam Gallagher as a massive Man city fan using a United legend in his video once. While portraying Cantona as lord of the manor and himself as butler and chauffeur 🤷♂️🤣🤣, but what ever the irony I love it.. I loved oasis and Liam , I love Cantona as a United fan. As far as Gallagher’s being City fans I couldn’t care less. They produced amazing music. The football side is totally irrelevant really
Verdade😆😆😆
King Eric is in the video for the song
@@rogerarmstrong9960 ....Ah...Yeah...Them noisy neighbours!
Man United’s 96-97 bygone, only one King of the golden era!
Oooh aaah Cantona, I said oooh aaah Cantona.....
❤️👍👑7.7.7. Best, Cantona, Ronaldo. The best player of utd
Long life to Eric Cantona .
you really went and forgot about David Beckham? facepalm
@@lukef1586 you really forgot about Robson? Facepalm
The original. Hated, ignored but never ignored.
If you’re looking for a rock and roll footballer he was it. Box office entertainment week in week out. And it weren’t just Utd fans who thought it.
So that is where Liam got his 'SHUDDER' from, Cantona, as a life long mcfc maine road fan, wow, he was The King back in that day Cantona believe me, from a lifelong 43 year old Manchester lad.
Legend
Just thebest footballer the premier league has seen.
i love football
What a legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Man the Legend.
On the 12th day of Christmas
'Ooh argh Cantona!' 👑
I love Cantona
Legend of football 😊
Ironically, The Gallaghers are Man City’s biggest fan
They are but they know a genius when they see one 💙
How much would he be valued at these days?
A mufc legend
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fifa23 must make his celebration style : straight the collar, look around the stadium, celebrate like a king. Celebrate like Cantona.
What a time to grow up watching this first hand back when players could play ...and change a game ...to much philosophy and systems and tactics over coached ...mowadays ...or maybe i am just an old fart ...ooh aaah ...
GOAT
Gotta love sardines on toast....
1 cantona 12 cantonas
The King
È come vedere Noel giocare. È bellissimo!
Di origine Turca
Libertino
A great player but Never in the class of the Best, it was Only one Best RIP George you will always be the greatest
Totally agree
George is great but never had the presence of Eric
Comparison is the thief of joy.
Marseille official product!!! ✊✊
Yeh..maybe born there...BUT MADE IN MANCHESTER !!
The GOAT ever in Football History! Hands down 🎉
Eric was the real goat this is the guy who paved the way for rooney and Ronaldo eric well always be the real king at old Trafford
We used to call Denis law the king. But Eric is Mon roi
Fucking legend!!!
Ledgend
Aka the king❤
He was cool as f*ck , this is when we had giants in our team , the total opposite now.
Fucking Legend
Great video.
2:07 Was this match a friendly? I've never seen that goal before
@@danman9076 Cheers!
Yeah
Where did you find this version?
The best thing Cantona did for Football was showing that arsehole Crystal Palace "fan " what he thought of him:
He did Millions of true supporters a fantastic service.
Still love you Eric.... Fabulous human being...Stay good my friend...my favorite French person on the planet!
Five cantonas four cantonas three cantonas two cantonas and a eric cantona.
Once
best player to watch of all time. miss him sadly. Im a graet united fan. He is in my heart forever.
Is it because they both have a monobrow? In all seriousness, Cantona is my childhood hero.
Le roi☀️
👌🏼🎯 right in the feels. THE King. antiracist antipapist peoples champ
1:40 is just my favorite goal of all time. Four second build up, three second flight of the ball directly to the top corner of goal : to me it says “Football.”
No, Eric.... Thank You.
What a song ...... Cantona wasn't too bad either!
Was this song penned to Eric specifically by Liam? Or did he merely dedicate it to him?
