The French Revolution, 1992-2002 : 10 Years of English Football After Eric Cantona

Ten years have now elapsed since Eric Cantona took what was then the unusual decision to make the short hop across the Channel and start his love affair with English football.

Less than six months after his arrival, he won his first Premier League title with Leeds United.

Within a year, he joined Manchester United and quickly inspired a whole generation of players to greatness. "The French Revolution" examines how, a decade on, the Premier League has now become the favourite playground for French footballers, whether they be internationals or bit-part players.

Never before has there been such a wonderful array of Gallic talent available in England.

From success stories such as Silvestre to kid's adventures like Vignal, from explorers such as Ginola and Leboeuf to innovators like Tigana, this book is the definitive encyclopaedia of French footballers in England.
