Even United blew far too much on renewing Rooney's contract, the Young deal never really paid off, Bebe was a unmitigated diaster and Hernandez would be complained about if United didn't have Van Persie to score a bucket load of goals.
Waste is a natural occurrence in football. We can argue about the scale of waste and which player costs too much, is paid too much, and so on. We are addressing the contract situation and a lot of players' contracts expire at the end of this season. So that's a good thing.
However I don't think the difference between struggling for forth and fighting for the title is 'waste'.

Well our wages are the 4th biggest in the league. It does add up.

nice way of defending incompetence. Utd are 3rd highest wage spenders in the league and they have just won the league. nabbing our gem RVP. if you dont add quality, quality will leave. if you dont sign quality and trust too much in flops your squad will be less motivated. how many rotten apples at Arsenal and how many are there at Utd? its a business. busiensses strives towards efficiencies. if your not up to scratch then your sacked, its simple. to top it we're sold self subtainzzzz etc. etc. its all bullcrap. you cant defend it. the problems are deep adn there not addressed because its the officials whom are at fault.
