With seven points secured from the last nine on offer, it appears Manchester United are beginning to acclimatise themselves to life under Ralf Rangnick.
While the performances against both Brentford and West Ham United were far from glittering and perfect, they did, at least, see United get six points on the board, show a sense of hard work and determination and, most importantly, provide proof that the players are beginning to buy in to Rangnick's methods.
Although it is important not to get too carried away — even if the players and Rangnick deserve recognition for an improvement — green shoots of recovery are beginning to rise from beneath the club's recent woes.
