Manchester United have spent over £1BILLION since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013... the four managers since have signed 37 players but just three trophies have been won. So who has wasted the most money?

Manchester United have spent over £1billion in the transfer market since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013.

Their summer acquisitions of Donny van de Beek, Amad Diallo, Alex Telles and Facundo Pellistri - totalling just over £75million - took United's post-Fergie spend beyond this milestone.

In that time, there have been 37 signings, four managers and just three pieces of silverware.

Sir Alex Ferguson won the Premier League title before retiring as Man United manager in 2013
Since then, silverware has been scarce at Old Trafford with the 2016 FA Cup a rare success
United won the UEFA Europa League in 2017 in their one post-Fergie continental success

A haul of one FA Cup, one League Cup and one UEFA Europa League in seven seasons illustrates how United have declined as a force - on the pitch at least - since the end of the Ferguson dynasty.
