On Saturday, Manchester United did something they hadn't done for nearly a month and for six successive matches: they scored in the second half.

United's season has threatened to come off the rails completely over the last month. The shock Europa League elimination to Sevilla ended the hopes of winning a treble, they only just managed to scrape past Brighton in the FA Cup semi-final and then the ridiculous way in which they dropped points to Tottenham, Brighton and West Ham began to put their seemingly nailed-on Champions League place in serious jeopardy.

Though Erik ten Hag's side still have a game in hand, the fact Liverpool have gained enough ground to come within a point of them has sent serious shivers of anxiety down many a spine.

United have made plenty of progress this season but finishing outside of the top four would make it feel like a failure despite the end of the trophy drought.
