    People talk about Vinnie being a hard man but that was a cowards tackle that was meant to sort out the soft Frenchie. Cantona just got straight up and came out of it looking harder tbh.

    He did do a 360 pirouet in midair, but also to be fair, it looks like Jones was aiming for his groin with his boot, that was well above the knee.
    Obviously he wasnt going for the ball with that leg. That'd be an instant red if that was caught on VAR these days. lol was Vinnie even booked for that? <laugh> how times have changed!

    I think it’s fair to say he was going for the balls
    Not a scissor challenge

    lol I know stills can be deceiving but Jones' foot is like 2 feet off the ground there, unless they are playing Rocket League, its a fair shout to say he was never gonna get the ball, even if he had timed it right, if he had that would have snapped Eric's knee

    Whenever he got the ball first it was accidental.
