"With Eric, his impact was total - much bigger than Henry's at Arsenal.
"His arrival coincided with United winning the title again after 26 barren years.
"Henry came into a situation where Arsenal had won the title in recent times, so he certainly hasn't had as much impact as Cantona did.
"You'd be hard pushed to think of anyone who has had such a significant role in one club as Cantona since the Premiership began."
