Eric Cantona
Besides being the king of pitching, Eric Cantona also gained a reputation as the king of controversy. His most infamous moment was a remarkable kung-fu kick on a fan, followed by a series of punches. He got an eight-month ban and almost ended up in prison. The idol has been in trouble before, when he punched his own goalkeeper and was sentenced to two weeks in jail, but ended up doing only 120 hours community service.
