'I am not surprised' - Man Utd legend Cantona inducted into Premier League Hall of Fame

The Frenchman has been recognised for his outstanding achievements at Old Trafford between 1992 and 1997

Manchester United legend Eric Cantona insisted he was "not surprised" after becoming the third man to be inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.

The league's all-time record goalscorer Alan Shearer and Arsenal great Thierry Henry became the inaugural inductees into the Hall of Fame, which has been dubbed the highest individual honour given to players by the league.

Cantona has now joined the duo as the third man in the prestigious line-up, and gave a typically immodest response when bestowed with the accolade on Tuesday.
