Manchester United are through to the Fourth Round of The FA Cup after a dramatic penalty shoot-out victory at Arsenal - but the green shoots of a long-awaited recovery may end up shimmering even brighter than the silverware they dream of.

This result was important for United as they bid to re-confirm themselves as contenders under Ruben Amorim, and they know there is a long, long way to go before they can overturn more than a decade of under-achievement since Sir Alex Ferguson retired.
