12 Eric Cantona


Cantona was signed by Man Utd for just £1.2 million and promply inspired them to 4 titles in 5 years. The only time they didn't win the league was when he was sitting at home 'redefining his relationship with the football' and spouting poetry about sardines following his drop-kick aimed at an opposition supporter. Cantona was elegance personified with his classy touch and ability to do the unexpected. As well as creating a lot of goals, he became a reliable goalscorer, knocking in a lot with his head. An all time legend at Old Trafford.
For: Great all round centre forward
Against: He never quite performed for France or in Europe for Man Utd.
