Manchester City need to prove that there is a big project

I want the best players to be in my league. I want my league to be as strong as possible and, of course, Kaka is absolutely top. It would have been very, very bad for Italian football if Kaka had left Serie A. But at the same time I can understand that Manchester City, with such financial power, want first of all to win credibility, to win the respect of football people.[LNB]The first step for them is not for football people to just look at them as a financial power, but as a financial power linked to a future project, with something really big to chase. [LNB]And if a club like Manchester City can bring in a player like Kaka, they win that credibility in two seconds.[LNB]When a player like him decides to join City it will be because they have proved there is a big project; because I don't think a player like Kaka is going to leave a club like Milan because of one euro more or one euro less.[LNB]Ultimately, football is about the emotion of winning trophies, not money; whether it is the Champions League, the Premiership, Serie A or the FA Cup. And it doesn't get much more emotional than winning the FA Cup.[LNB]
