Having won first and second division titles in the space of two years, Howard Wilkinson would be lampooned for selling Cantona. The fact is Cantona's importance to Leeds has been overstated. "I don't recall him scoring too many clinchers," Gordon Strachan said. He actually scored nine league goals. He gave Leeds added impetus, but nobody expected him to go on and do what he did at Old Trafford. "Eric likes to do what he likes, when he likes and then f**** off," Wilkinson said. Quite.
