It's coming up 10 years since Manchester United last got their hands on the big one and the club have spent over £1billion in that time to recapture the trophy they historically call their own.
Several false dawns have come and gone in that decade - with David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer picking up a sprinkle of silverware between them without going on to emulate the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson and his vast achievements. But there is growing hope Erik ten Hag will eventually end their ongoing Premier League hoodoo.
He might even be one £100million move away from having the tools at his disposal to make those dreams a reality for long-suffering supporters next season. Harry Kane is on radar for Ten Hag as United strive to do the unthinkable and prise him away from Daniel Levy.
