Memphis Depay: Man Utd forward dazzles in iconic shirt

Memphis Depay's European bow at Old Trafford was so sumptuous that manager Louis van Gaal said he wanted to "kiss" his fellow Dutchman.

And it is easy to see why Van Gaal felt so strongly about his £31m summer signing, who scored twice and set up the other goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over Club Brugge in the first leg of their Champions League play-off.

Whether it's #Memphis or #Depay - he prefers just Memphis because he does not want to use his father's surname - his performance made him an instant hit inside Old Trafford.

Since Cristiano Ronaldo's departure in 2009, Manchester United have struggled to find a worthy heir to the number seven shirt, but the search may finally be over.
