It’s fair to say Manchester United have been something of a rollercoaster in recent years - but things are finally looking up.
The Red Devils are a team bang in form and - crucially - who look to have a clear direction again under the guidance of Erik ten Hag. The Dutch manager has brought in a firm but fair approach and clear vision which has seen some tipping them as title contenders in his first season in charge.
The early signs under Ten Hag look extremely positive and are playing out under the backdrop of wholesale changes behind the scenes to revamp the United setup. Whilst the Glazer family looking to sell has added some uncertainty, the football operation at Old Trafford suddenly looks far more cohesive and well-oiled than it has for quite some time.
