Eric Cantona won four leagues and two FA Cup trophies in five years with Sir Alex Ferguson between 1992 and 1997. Now, he is criticizing the way the club is running under the direction of José Mourinho, writes the BBC.
"I suffer and more when I see how good Manchester City is," Cantona told The Republic of Mancunia.
The Frenchman is not happy with the appearance of Manchester United against Juventus in the Champions League.
– That's how they play. You can lose battles, but you have to take risks. To lose weight in favor of Juventus, who holds 70% of the ball at Old Trafford? Can you imagine that with Ferguson on the bench?
"I think young people need an example – they need bigger stars, more movement and more creative football to get along with a player or a team," says Eric Cantona.
"We can not accept it
This season, Manchester United has four wins in the first nine Premier League matches. Mourinho has been criticized several times for his defensive play. He thinks Cantona is harmful
for the future of red devils
"I think Manchester United is losing a generation of young footballers," Cantona said.
On the other side of the city, Pep Guardiola has made Manchester City a title favorite in offensive football.
He thinks Cantona is bad for the future of the red devils.
"Young players identify with the way City plays – we can not accept that," says 52-year-old.
Believes that a former player should take over
Eric Cantona has already stated that José Mourinho was not the ideal candidate. Instead, the Frenchman thinks a former player should take control of the rudder at Old Trafford.
"They never give a player who knows the club from the inside, who knows the identity and philosophy of the club.
Even Cantona will not designate himself as a candidate.
"I do not want people to believe that I say that because I want to be the Manchester United manager." It's the truth, says Eric Cantona.
And who, according to former number seven, should be the next Manchester United man is uncertain.
– Ryan Giggs? If a former player wants to be the manager of United, the club must leave him the opportunity
