The sight of Manchester United's Class of '22 lifting the FA Youth Cup at Old Trafford on Wednesday was one to lift the spirits of supporters, but the good news didn't end there last week.
The academy has brought some cheer to a dreadful season and it was a rare experience to see smiles on faces at Old Trafford in midweek, on the pitch and in the stands.
Erik ten Hag will be delighted to see the talent coming through the academy, but his immediate focus will be on turning the first team around and there is an awful lot of work to do.
