Eric Cantona: On football, society and art
Is football in danger of losing its soul to commerce? Former Manchester United footballer Eric Cantona says he would rather watch a second division team today than follow a Premier League side. He says, “I think we live in a big circus. Everybody knows that.” The Today programme’s Nick Robinson spoke to Eric Cantona and the fine artist Michael Browne about how both art and football can reflect and change society.
