money can buy everything, almost


So money isn't everything in football, after all. The much-dramaticised saga of Kaka's potential transfer to Manchester City has ended with the Brazilian displaying his commitment and loyalty to AC Milan. Traits which are sadly missing in most modern footballers these days.

Since the rise of the EPL, more and more players have been stooping to selling themselves to the highest bidder in England; popular mercenaries who kiss the badge of their respective teams on Saturday, and demand a transfer to the Premier League on the following day. And just when the cynic in most fans started to mouth 'I told you so', Kaka reinforced a belief many thought was dead - there's more to football than just money.

So I guess it's goodbye, and good riddance to the 108 million quid. And hopefully, CR7 as well.
