is this even possible, since this season financial fair play was introduced?
Absolutely. See: Manchester City.
Qatarians have wanted to buy the club outright but the Glazers declined. At this point, United don't even need to receive massive financial injections to build a better lineup. The club made something like 300 million pounds in profit last season, most of which went to paying off the Glazers' personal debt and interest charges. With that kind of money invested in the club, we'd have more talent and more depth. (depth is actually our bigger problem for trying to win EPL. You won't see City struggling in random games when their backup players are in, because those players were starters last season.)
Silva is amazing. Role model for all other footballers that aren't 6'2 or taller, and a fine example of someone who creates far better chances by riding tackles instead of winning easy free kicks by falling down.
the referee in the chelsea game is the biggest cunt I've seen... he calls random shit and doesn't give any good fouls for chelsea ... it's ridiculous =\

you seem somewhat displeased, he's missed a couple of minor things in qpr's favour but has got the big calls right.

I can't wait for match of the day tonight. This is hilarious.
listen... I am an Arsenal fan, the ref didn't get the first sending off right at all, he didn't even notice that the ball was spinning towards the outside and both players were level with each other.
Then in the second half luis gets basically thrown down and doesn't get the penalty call when he lightly pushed the other player for the penalty on him... it's ridiculous refereeing decisions like that and mostly inconsistencies that ruin games.
I mean the guy would not see a foul on chelsea then 2 seconds later he would call one on them for the slightest possible thing, I can't WAIT to see AVB's interview "the ref made the decisions but we played well" I'm 100% sure that's all he'll say
Have to feel bad for Chelsea, they played like true heroes with 9 man. I think they deserved to get something out of that game, but the ref wanted it another way.
First red was questionable but the second red was fully deserved. It was not a penalty. Only saw highlights though, but I hope no-one complains about the red card given to Drogba lol.
