Man City Killing Football?

The one thing I hate about football is gossip -- or insulting, complaining in the papers, etc. There seems to be a lot of strong opinions that get stressed at the wrong time in the wrong place. 

But I must comment on the latest comments from FC Copenhagen coach Stale Solbakken. 

Now "killing" is a strong word to use, but I have to agree with the coach here. The millions and millions of dollars Manchester City has been pouring into the transfer market has been remarkable. The staggering depths of City's pockets cannot be matched by other squads. 

Every team has a right to win and to improve themselves, but this saturation of the market is terrible. You can call me naive, but I believe players feel a kinship with their city and fans, and this luring of atrocious salaries City has been offering is "killing" the spirit of football. 

I applaud Kaka for turning down City's record offer and staying at AC Milan.   

But that's my two cents, what do you think?
