French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde thinks Eric Cantona should concentrate on football and not economic matters, after the former Manchester United star said banks must be punished for their role in the global recession.
In an interview with Presse Ocean last month that has since become a YouTube hit, Cantona said millions of people could help to spark a revolution by withdrawing all their money from their bank accounts.
Protest groups are now calling on people to take their money out of their accounts on Dec. 7 in a coordinated bank run.
Lagarde said Wednesday that Cantona should stop ''intervening in finance (and) economics, especially when he doesn't fully understand the mechanics of it.''
