Eric Cantona says José Mourinho and current Marseille boss Marcelo Bielsa are very similar in their style and character.

Marseille currently sit at the summit of Ligue 1 with a four-point lead over champions Paris Saint-Germain, while Chelsea is unbeaten atop the Premier League.

"I do not support Marseille much, but I like Bielsa," ERic Cantona told France 2. "I think he has... character. He has a personality, charisma. He knows good football.

"He's a bit like Mourinho. I like all those guys. When there is a press conference with Bielsa or Mourinho, we know that something will happen.

"I like to hear them speak. I like that they call into question the opinions and questions of journalists."
