Based on the Flickr source, no evidence that the Flickr user actually took this picture. Ytoyoda (talk) 05:50, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Delete Agreed--although he seems to mostly take his own pictures, this one sticks out as different from the rest both in terms of content and technical quality (i.e. fast action over the slower, more pensive images he seems to prefer). --jonny-mt 13:50, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete Also agree. Does look like it's not the users own photo. Several reasons. Firstly, per above, doesn't fit with users other "own work" shots. Secondly, it was uploaded to Flickr at least 10 years after it was taken. (Cantona left United in 1997). And thirdly, it seems to be the same as an image loaded here (geocities) which is a page which pre-dates the Flickr image. (Geocities image dates from 2005. Flickr upload from 2007) Isn't absolute proof. But does cast some doubt. May be an AgF mislabelling as CC2.0 on Flickr. Guliolopez (talk) 17:05, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
