Don't bank on it, we had a liability for years who was exactly the same - Richard Shaw.
Enough with the Richard Shaw bashing, you do it constantly and it makes you look like either a Leicester fan or, more simply, just a completely unappreciative prick. Shaw was one of the best man-markers in British football in his day. There was a programme on R5 about Fergies anniversary at Man U. They got onto the Cantona kick. Then-Palace gaffer Alan Smith was interviewed about the events. He spoke about how they had employed Shawsy as a man-marker, and he never gave Cantona a sniff. It was driving Cantona mental, and Smith says it was very much the frustration at not being able to shake him off being behind the blown fuse. I remember that from the game, although it was his time before we signed him. Check out the video and the posters for the kick-Shaw is right next to him even then! It reminded me of the time Gazza broke his arm on Mcgrath when he lashed-out at Lloyd after a similarly "superglue" type man-marking job.
So, to get this straight, you think
a man who marked Cantona at the peak of his prowess out of a game was a "liability". You, sir, are the liability.
He was also an unswervingly loyal servant to our club-
and Palace-, Mr Consistent and incredibly versatile. Please pick a better target for your derision in future-your Carsley-bashing this summer was similarly nauseating.
