Arnie definitely. But there’s no one who in reality would join us at the moment is there. Which is sad. Kyle Lightbourne might be tempted

With the lift Ronaldo has had at the shit, which ex player would have a similar effect here on crowd/fans at present if we resigned them? Bojan? I would have Bojan back in a heartbeat right now. A fucking majestic footballer. A real shame he has never hit the heights he should have but on his day what an absolute baller.

Shaqiri is still only 29, Nzonzi and Arnautovic are both 32. So I'd bring back Shaqiri. But it's close, if they were all 29 I'd bring back Nzonzi. Nzonzi playing in DM week-in week-out would probably win us the title. In fact I think I've changed my mind to 32 year old SN. Such a wasted talent Shaqiri

Played for Liverpool, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich and of course the mighty potters. 90 odd internationals and 20 odd goals. And a World Cup hat trick. Hardly a wasted talent

There is no one currently playing who would get that kind of reaction.
Of the players I've seen only Chamberlain, Hoekstra, Hudson (second time) and Fuller could electrify the crowd like that.

Hardly a wasted talent Arnie on the other hand I would argue is. He should have moved to someone good after us. A massive waste.

I can't see anyone having anywhere near the same effect. Bojan may come closest, but I'm not sure even the most optimistic Bojan fans (probably me included there) would think he'd recapture his form.

Arnie would be superb in this league and would win any doubters over in no time at all.

Think he would divide the fans too.much cause of the shit he's done when left. If he somehow resigned for us, I can't help but think all would be forgiven. All would one hundred percent be forgiven, probably will never happen but good god I would love it.

If we are talking players recently retired then Fuller, the player who could grab the ball and with no space at all wind and weave his way into the penalty area and score. He was one of a kind Ric, he was worth the entrance fee alone on his day and just knowing it could be his day made it worth the entrance fee, absolute legend for me.

Hardly a wasted talent Has he lived up to his potential? He’s just sat on the bench at Liverpool I think that's overly harsh and simple tbh. He allowed them to rest players and filled in and did a good job when called upon. Could he be a regular for such a club? Maybe but I think a bench option for a club like that at that moment in his career was possibly even overachieving.

And not all players are going to win a bagful of medals. Shaqiri remains a great talent who was marvellous and a difference maker a lot of the time.

Ronaldo makes a positive difference to Manchester United. 90% of the players mentioned on this thread would not even make the bench let alone make a positive impact to the team. Possible exceptions being Zonz, Shaq and Arnie. Frankly, they all had their chance and as far as I'm concerned, please stay the heck away from my club! If Ric had somehow kept the same fitness levels and kept playing competitively like Sir Stan, he'd be the only one I'd even consider. But ..... I'll stick with the current crop thanks!
