I think the articles are pretty fair with them nonetheless. I didn't realise how much of a lucky man was Diomede (when you consider that Lama did not play).

hey has Eric Cantona every played for France? I watch him played for Manchester United before and he was so famous and good when he was there but I can't recall any games he played for france.

He played and scored a goal in the infamous November 17th 1993 match against Bulgaria that saw France miss out on the qualification for WC'94...

really? that's pretty impressive.

as everyone knows, his problems were always relational. he drove guy roux nuts, and even at marseille he was the house problem child, and that takes some doing.

I always felt that Platini understood him best.

In a way he used that aggression that he had and converted into an end product. I think he understood his fiery Italian roots as good as anyone.

I personally feel only him and Fergie at Man U have ever gotten the best out of Cantona.
