Rio Ferdinand says Manchester United have paid the price for letting five of his former teammates depart Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag's first season was a largely promising one after finishing in the top four and reaching the final of both domestic cup competitions. He appears to have United on the right path but their Carabao Cup success was only the fourth trophy won since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure.
Ferdinand was part of the last title-winning team in 2013 and says the club "messed up" in the transfer windows under previous managers Louis van Gaal and David Moyes.
