Eric Cantona- Kung-Fu kick was best moment of my career - Video

Manchester United legend Eric Cantona has claimed that his infamous ‘kung-fu’ kick was a “dream” and a highlight of his career.

The incident, which took place at Selhurst Park back in 1995, resulted in the Manchester United forward receiving an eight-month ban and £30,000 fine.

However, the new Director of Football at New York Cosmos said: “It is a dream for some people to kick these kind of people- so I did it for them…so that they are happy.

“It’s a kind of freedom for them – so they speak about that incident because they felt something special physically.

“Maybe it was a different feeling. It is a great feeling – but different.

“I have seen so many players scoring goals and they know what that feels like, but this one – a player jumping and kicking a hooligan – it’s not the kind of thing you see every day!”

LEE SHARPE: MY UNITED

A flying left winger in the 1980s and 90s, Sharpey played alongside many United greats who make up his impressive dream team. The rules are simple, Lee can only select players he played with, except one wildcard...

Peter Schmeichel - Quite simply, the best goalkeeper there has ever been. Awesome.

Gary Neville - From youth-team captain to first-team captain, the consummate pro.

Steve Bruce - Great reader of the game and cool on the ball – score big winners, too.

Gary Pallister - Pally was a footballing centre-half; really classy and quick.

Denis Irwin - Consistent on either side of defence, and a regular scorer to boot.

George Best (My wildcard) - No United team is complete without him – absolute genius!

Roy Keane - A pure winner, Keano led by example. He’s an undoubted legend.

Bryan Robson (My captain) - Mr United. He bossed every game he played in. Superb.

Ryan Giggs - Different gravy. Beat players like they weren’t there, still doing it now.

Norman Whiteside - An unbelievable talent and the sweetest left foot. A true great.

Eric Cantona - Just exquisite. What a player, and the coolest man ever to grace a pitch.
