£100m for Kaka!!!!

[rich p]

The effing world has gone mad, particularly the football world if this happens.
He has reputedly been offered £500k per week after tax too. At these times it just sticks in the craw. People are losing their houses and jobs for the want of a few grand.

i've heard the word kaka used by the leading riders in a group to warn of horse/cow/dog shoot in the road ahead…

i hope he doesn't live up to billing at that price

Wouldn't it be great if they bought him then got relegated, lol, I know it's bad but I'd love to see that. Do you think the Man City negotiators still pretending to be from Man Utd?

Manchester City a big club? Since when? Like our own team Leeds Utd over 30 years ago.Get real.This money is going to spoil football.Wait for the big bang.

and people look at me funny when I say wages should be capped.

Clubs get themselves into all sorts of troubles, not able to afford bills and such with stunts like these.

What do you mean "will spoil"?
It already has... and I am speaking as Chelsea supporter.

Funny how it is always football that people get all worked up about when it comes to money. Pop stars and film stars can earn tens of millions per year and people still worship them and actually regard them as serious figures whose words have importance. Think of Bono's ramblings and the crass interviews film stars give about bringing about world peace and harmony. At least mega-rich footabllers usually keep quiet.

Be thankful for small mercies.

Sign of the times and all that. If someone offered me 500k a week then I don't think I'd be turning them down, regardless of the number of house repossessions etc. What Man City do with their bank roll is their call.

Personally, I think they're going about it the wrong way as 1 player, as good as that player might be, is not going make the team great.... unless they have another 5 or 6 such signings to come! But, more to the point, I can't really see it happening anyway.

*100 million euros.
Which is probably about a billion pounds now.

Looks like a future mess. Robinho is being used to talk to Kaka because he is unhappy that he's the only 'star' there and a bit miffed at the league position, so he's also making noises about Hughes. Pretty soon there'll be fallout and City are gonna struggle to bring in big name players.

Cant see how it affects the game how many 0s are on the end of the transfer fee. Club must do their sums and think it is a worthwhile investment.

Better to be paid to a wage earner in England so it can be taxed!

On tother hand .. look what you can get for three cans of stella....

Do us a favour...Remind me of the Man City v Forest FA Cup result, will ya!

Pretty much the way I see it too. It'll end in tears. They're going about it in entirely the wrong way, imo. Putting expensive tyres on a rusted old heap isn't going to make much difference.

Yeah, look at Chelsea!!
