Eric Cantona in full agreement with Rio Ferdinand as he gives ruthless verdict on Man Utd

Eric Cantona has become the latest former Manchester United player to question his old club's pulling power in the transfer market.

Cantona, 56, quickly became a cult hero at Old Trafford after joining the club from Leeds back in 1992 and the Frenchman was influential in a United side that won four Premier League titles in five years under the guidance of Sir Alex Ferguson.

Since then, United have fallen on tough times. The arrival of Erik ten Hag has improved the club's fortunes, with United currently on course for a top-four finish this term. But Ten Hag's hands are tied in the January transfer window, with the Dutchman restricted to loan deals after spending in excess of £200million in the summer.
