Totally Extra: Cantona - the first Premier League superstar
9 mei 2026 · 1 uur 9 min
Jimbo is joined by Daniel Storey, Tom Williams, Duncan Alexander and very special guest Paul Ince, to open up the Totally Almanac on one of the most iconic premier league players ever, Eric Cantona. Lees meer
Born in Marseille, the enigmatic Frenchman was villainized in his home country after various misdemeanours, but thanks to Gérard Houllier was given a second chance in England.
He rocked up for a trial at Sheffield Wednesday, eventually joining Leeds, and before long Alex Ferguson couldn't believe his luck when he was offered the chance to sign the prodigious talent.
And the rest is history - Man Utd's new no. 7 was the final piece in Ferguson's puzzle, helping them win multiple trophies, including 4 league titles. His flair and his unique approach to the game changed the Premier League forever, and his infamous 'Kung Fu kick' only added to King Eric's cult status.
But how would he fare today? And what would he make of football in 2026?

A 1-0 win at Burnley relegates the Clarets and sends Pep Guardiola’s men above Arsenal on goals scored. Will they still be there at the end of May? They take on Southampton in the other semi-final this weekend.
Plus, the team look ahead to the rest of the weekend’s action. Can the Gunners move back ahead of City with a win against Newcastle? Will relegated Wolves drag Spurs down with them?
And with Leicester marking the ten-year anniversary of winning the Premier League by being relegated to League One, we ask what other unthinkable things might be happening in the world of football in a decade’s time.
