Man City - Kaka bid...

This aint good for the game, what I have read is the whole transfer will cost around 200 million including wages, agents fees and the transfer itself.

If this goes through it would just be the worst thing ever, due to the fact its ridiculous money just for some guy to kick a ball and also it will lead to more outrageous fees and wages, some man city players will only be earning a tenth of what kaka would be on. Also the £500,000 a week wage is a gross figure.

Hold tight the oil massive, Man City will and always will be 2nd rate to Man Utd.

to be honest, if kaka is worth £100million+ just think how much lionel messi is worth!
You're comparing the wrong stats. The £100+ goes to Milan, Kaka's represenatives, etc... Kaka's actual would be wage is £500,000 a week, 52 * £500,000 = £26,000,000.

right you are. my mistake.

I was about to start thread on this until i seen this one, its absoulutly ridiculous amount of money!!!

Was reading about this on bbc website,

I will be so glad to see Kaka in the Premier League, He is a class act, £100 million will be worth it I suppose as Man City's name will have arrived in the world, Kaka alone wont generate all that money but the names that will be interested in joining Kaka would be very large.

Whoever wrote this doesnt obviously know anything about football, i think it will destroy the love of the game and turn into a buisness (which the majority of it is anyways) but its fucking unreal amount of money!!!

a completely ridiculous amount of money all the same. plus all there is probably a load of other bits tied into the contract that we will never hear about.

this is bad for football.
money being thrown around like this will have some sort of repercussions.

This is a bit epic, but quite funny...

E-mail at work wrote:
I have come across dialogue between Man City and AC Milan superstar Kaka.
Unfortunately I only have the script from the City end but I think it is
clear for all as to the total content:

"Hello, is that Kaka? How do you fancy becoming the supply line to Craig
Bellamy and Darius Vassell this winter?

"No, your fellow countryman doesn’t like the cold and will be out until mid
April - but you will play alongside Stephen Ireland"

"No, Kaka, Ireland is a person not a country"

"yes, I fully appreciate that he is not Ronaldinho, Pirlo or even Beckham
but many fans have him in their fantasy football"

"I know you are currently the richest man in Italy but we can double it!"

"erm, well, we have had a bit of a slide recently and we are currently
15th"

"erm, out of 20...... but Mark Hughes once won the double for our
neighbours"

"Hughes"

"Ex Blackburn boss"

"Blackburn, Blackburn Rovers"

"No, Blackburn......Black.....Burn"

"HUGHES man, HUGHES!!!"

"He once scored a good goal against Spain"

"No, thats Gerry Armstrong..... anyway, are you coming or not?"

"Usually about two thirds full but if we play a big team its really rocks"

"yes I know, but we dont even have a car park cos all the fans walk to the
ground they are so local"

"Relevance? well, I suppose its all they have to brag about whether its
true or not"

"Only the one to be fair but its called 'blue moon' you will love it"

"Blue"

"yes, definitely blue, always has been"

"No, no, no, they are in Trafford"

"yes they are, steeped in it in fact but what good is history to you my
ambitious friend?"

"erm, 1976 I think"

"it was the er, the er League cup if memory serves me right"

"Well, the plan was to get in the top 4 this season and then....."

"yes, I realise that but....."

"Aston Villa? Whats it got to do with them?"

"Yes, I know but we have been down this history route already"

"How the heck does a Brazilian playing in Italy know about Nottingham
Forest?"

"Yes, yes, and Leeds United also made a final but you are missing my point,
this is all about the future"

"Give me strength......HUGHES!!!!"

"yes I know he did and he was a legend there but he is a changed man"

"forget them, they are falling apart"

"But all those trophies were won last year! They have won nothing in 2009"

"I have told you.... 1976!!!!"

"How the heck does a Brazilian playing in Italy know that Virginia Wade has
won Wimbledon since then?"

"Yes she probably is in her 60's"

"I dont know, probably about 10 league titles, 2 european cups and
countless domestic cups what has that got to do with it?"

"76,000 why?"

"yes, every game, even minor cups I suppose, but where is this getting us?"

"Yes, the league cup is considered a minor cup over here why?"

"I know, I know, I know, ok perhaps they won the FA Cup in 1970 or
something does it really matter?"

"look, Kaka, we will treble whatever you are on now, buy you a mansion in
Alderley Edge and give you a helicopter for your front lawn....are you
joining us?"

"NO!, its owned by the council - what has the ground got to do with
anything"

"well, officially its the city of manchester stadium but most people call
it Eastlands"

"EAST!, not Waste"

"You will be adored there"

"No, not there, here I meant"

"No, thats Old Trafford, I meant adored here at Waste....erm, Eastlands"

"Anderson??? what does he know?"

"Ok I hear what you say, but other than Pride, Ambition, Achievement,
History, Passion and a large car park - what can they offer you?"

"what do you mean no credit left in your phone.....I phoned you"

"Hello, Mr Kaka,...... Mr Kaka are you
there?............................

Defo bad for football, couldnt agree more!!! Also no wonder we unfortunate people without that kind of money are stuggling in the credit crunch, they should be thinking about funding some money to us normal people than spending over 100mill on a player!!!

This is the sort of irrespossible decision making that is causing the economic crisis we are in..

Who said football players are good judges in investing enormous amounts of money..wasn't that one guy blowing like 12K a week on hookers and blow?

That money should be underwriting health care or hunger initiatives..

HamCrescendo · Post by **HamCrescendo** » Sun Feb 01, 2009 12:33 am

12k a week on bugle and brass.

Jesus, he must be happy on the outside (which is what matters).
