Eric Cantona
Manchester United legends Eric Cantona and Roy Keane have reacted to their admissions into the Premier League Hall of Fame. Cantona won four league titles at Old Trafford, scoring 70 goals in 156 league appearances for United, developing into one of the division’s first world-class stars, his confidence validated by his swashbuckling performances on the pitch. The Frenchman boasted an arrogance that was endearing and the 54-year-old clearly hasn’t changed since his retirement.
Eric Cantona said: “I am very happy and very proud, but at the same time I am not surprised. I would’ve been surprised not to be elected. I have been lucky to play in this team, with wonderful players, a wonderful manager and wonderful fans. We won and it was the football I dreamed about because Manchester United, it’s a club where they want to win things but in a good way.”
Keane played alongside Cantona for three seasons at United before forging his own outstanding career and Sir Alex Ferguson entrusted the Irishman to become Cantona’s successor as the club’s captain after he called time on his playing days in 1997.
Roy Keane said: “I feel very lucky to be inducted but I’ve only been inducted because of the players I’ve played with. Signing for Manchester United and walking into a brilliant dressing room [was the highlight of my career].”
