Cantona: "The World-wide did not win it Spain, won it Catalonia"

Eric Cantona has undone in praises to the FC Barcelona and has ensured that "the World-wide did not win it Spain, but Catalonia". Already it is withdrawn, but keeps on being a "enfant terrible" and, as such, Éric Cantona has spoken clear, so much of the Barça as of the Spanish selection

The FC Barcelona has found an unexpected ally in Éric Cantona. "The Barça is the best team of the world, because it has known to take care the quarry and has combined it with big signings", said the ex French player during the previous ceremony to the delivery of the Prizes Laureus.

Cantona, of 48 years, explained his reasoning: "there are a lot of very rich clubs that they can buy the players that want to and, in fact, do it. But also they have to take care his quarry and, in this appearance, the one who has done it better is the Barça, that has taken out big players of his quarry. All this philosophy began thanks to Johan Cruyff, that brought it of Holland and of the Ajax", explains.

The admiration of Cantona to the model of the Barça is so big that, asked on the possibilities of recovery of the Spanish selection, answers conclusive that "the World-wide did not win it Spain, won it Catalonia", in reference to the fact that in selection of Of the Forest that topped champion of the World in 2010 there were seven players formed in the inferior categories of the Barcelona club.

Cantona Has remembered that one of his grandparents comes from of Martorell and had to exile in France with the explosion of the Civil War and surprises to the hour to say who is, for him, the best player of the world: "it is not neither Messi neither Cristiano. The best player of the world, for me, is Javier Pastore".
