Shearer was a bit more of a straightforward centre-forward - when he was free of niggling injuries he was as good as anyone at it.
Baggio had a more succesful International career than the others as Shearer never made any true impact on a World Cup. He was also blessed with more flair and skill but less raw power than the other two.
Cantona was a bit more of an enigma. The controversy that surrounded him only served to further his legendary status and he will be as well remembered for that night at Selhurst Park as he will for any of the wonderful goals he scored. He was kind of like a mixture of the other two, he had flair beyond belief as well as great strength and power.
I'd say that Cantona was probably the better all round player, but his international career was never truly realised which is a shame.
All great players, though.

You should really compare like for like, Shearer was an out an out striker while Cantona was more midfield.
Even though I hate Man United I would have to give Cantona the nod from the players listed.

Shearer was a good player but if your asking about great players there was only 1 king and that was Cantona.

Baggio? Are you serious?
Shearer was a supreme goalscorer but Cantona (despite being a United player) was by far a better all-round footballer.

Cantona was a total football player, Shearer was a great goalscorer but Eric had it all!
