Wenger: More stars will join Man City

Manager Arsène Wenger is confident that more world class stars will make the move to join mega-rich Manchester City, as so far Brazil star Robinho has been willing to make the move to the blue half of Manchester.

According to reports, Manchester City were planning a record £100million bid for Kaka in January but those stories came to nothing. Nonetheless, Wenger does not expect Robinho to be the only global star in the blue half of Manchester at the start of next season.

Wenger said: "Robinho's a world class player. He went to Manchester City thinking he would be joined by many more players and you wouldn't be surprised if he'd had a hand in the Kaka story.

"A big, big player can also be a chance to bring in other big players because they think: 'he's gone, why shouldn't I go?' He's the first big buy or massive buy waiting for others.

"Frankly, I rate Robinho as a player but I don't know him as a person and don't know what he has been told. But when you look at the resources that City have, the newspapers will be busy with them in the summer."

Man city need to bid for morally lacking, non-religious, greedy players to secure their contracts.Kaka is religious and knows joining a club solely for money adds to the destruction of the game.They need more robinho's who did'nt even know where he was going and just wanted 160k a week. That will be difficult as Chelsea have the pick of the Gold diggers.
