As far as I know you are allowed 3 salary cap exceptions to allow foreign players or huge local players (Donovan)

But with $3m, you're not going to get much quality, are you sure that's right? Most of the players on Chelsea or Man City's roster earn that in themselves. Their overall budgets are well over $100m

In terms of age, peak is 25-30 in general. But their decline all depend on how important their physical skills are to them. Lampard for example has lasted extraordinary well, but isn't going to be as good as he has been for Chelsea and won't quite have the stamina

They are indeed. Man Utd have the highest wage bill in English football paying £214.8m or $324.22m.

I would say Man U need to get their wage bill under control, but their commercial deals and huge stadium mean they just have such a huge amount of money they could spend more. They could actually afford Messi
