Manchester United have won the Carabao Cup, they have reached the FA Cup final and Champions League football looks guaranteed.
There were doubts about whether Erik ten Hag was the right appointment but the decision has proved to be inspired. He's enjoyed an excellent debut season at Old Trafford and the framework is now being laid for the next stage of his rebuild.
Although spending north of £200million in the summer transfer window, Ten Hag has got the best out of the players he inherited, however, he's not been able to solve the lack of goals away from Marcus Rashford.

Rashford has scored 28 goals this season and he's responsible for around 35 per cent of the team's haul. The forward has enjoyed an exceptional campaign, but the over-reliance on his goals is a concern and a solution needs to be found.
It's understood Ten Hag has made Harry Kane his priority striker target and that Napoli's Victor Osimhen and Benfica's Goncalo Ramos are high on the shortlist, which is unsurprising considering the attractive profiles of each of those players.
Kane is a guarantee of goals in the Premier League and Osimhen is currently the most sought-after striker in Europe. They would both command a fee in excess of £100m, whilst Benfica also tend to drive a hard bargain with their talented exports.
It's obvious that United need a centre-forward. They will sign a striker this summer, but with the club currently in takeover limbo, it wouldn't be out of character for the Glazers to use the circumstances to pinch the pennies in the market.
