At the Emirates, United did something unfamiliar: they controlled the danger. Arsenal had the ball, but mostly the wrong shots; United had fewer looks, but the right ones. They went behind, didn’t wobble, and stayed disciplined enough to keep the chances low-quality at both ends. Limited, but ruthless.

Is this a blueprint for every game? No. What remains to be seen is whether this is one string to United's bow that can be deployed to win these games, or the only way we can play without exposing our weaknesses. To answer that question, further evidence is needed, but for now, we can enjoy watching a United team that is less focused on suffering and is beginning to thrive.
