    Littler, who is a cult icon in the UK ever since his scintillating run to the PDC World Darts Championship final earlier this year, is also a renowned United fan.

    At 17 years old Littler wasn't around to see many of the legends he was asked to rank, but his choice of Ronaldo was a convincing one.

    Ronaldo clearly remains fondly remembered in Manchester despite the tumultuous end to his second stint at the club. He has been plying his trade with Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr since December 2022 and has since settled in nicely on and off the pitch, with both a stellar goal return and impressive business ventures to his name in the Middle East.
