Giggs tells Rashford how he would have fared with Cantona
Manchester United club legend Ryan Giggs knows a thing or two about playing with the eccentric Eric Cantona.
And he has now told Marcus Rashford, the current United star how much he would have loved to play with Cantona, like Giggs did.
“He was just different,” Giggs said.
“You see him there, look how big he is. People don’t realise how big and strong he was. He was like a target man but also he had them little touches.”
“For you he would have been a dream,” Giggs told Rashford.
“Because you know when you make those runs, he would always find you, and you wouldn’t have to break stride. You know sometimes in a game, you make runs, you make runs, but no-one’s finding you? As soon as he got the ball, he wasn’t interested in scoring – he wanted to score – but he got as much pleasure out of making assists. He was brilliant to play with.”
“Just the way that he trained. You must have seen coming up to the first team, players you’ve looked up to, training hard. You watch them and how they train and conduct themselves.”
