6) Anderson – £60k
Another desperately poor midfield player, Anderson will surely be shown the door before long and certainly isn’t worth his £60k wages.
5) Luke Shaw – £50k
A young player who needs time, but Luke Shaw has certainly cost United a lot of money so far with his £30m transfer fee and £50k wages.
4) Antonio Valencia – £70k
A highly average player in a number of positions, Antonio Valencia is not really good enough for this team and not worth his £70k per week.
3) Ashley Young – £118k
An insane amount of money – Ashley Young is currently collecting £118k per week and will surely be shifted before long.
2) Robin van Persie – £250k
Once a world class striker, Robin van Persie is looking somewhat past his best and is rumoured to be nearing an exit, which is little surprise given his huge £250k per week wages.
1) Radamel Falcao – £280k
Paid enormous amounts to warm the bench and the treatment table, Radamel Falcao is surely not worth this crazy money after a highly disappointing time at Old Trafford so far.
