Could he do it on a cold, rainy night in Stoke?
Gary Neville has been singing Memphis Depay’s praises from as far back in the mists of time as the 2014 World Cup.
The former Manchester United defender was delighted, then, in May of this year when Depay’s transfer to Old Trafford was confirmed.
However, Neville is a bigger fan of winning at all costs. Doing that usually means taking the most simple and effective options before getting back into your position and starting all over again.
United posted this sweet Depay goal, captured during the club’s pre-season tour of America.
Rooney crosses from the right and @Memphis… well, check it out for yourself. Sublime! #MUtour #MUTV https://t.co/4wFcupLwJY

Just about the only person not standing and applauding was Neville.
The Sky Sports pundit tweeted:
Should have headed it! Haha https://t.co/wMWU0TadXN

Git yer head behind it son, as Fergie, his old mentor, would say.
