Are Players in the Premier League Paid too much?

So, this is an argument that seems to rear its head every now and then and this seems to be one of those times. Are Premier League players paid too much?

This time, the argument seems to have been raised by Sports Minister Gerry Sutcliffe claiming that John Terry's salary is "obscene". Do you agree with Sutcliffe or should we just expect and accept these things as a part of today’s game?

Is the Premier League to blame or are there other leagues and other factors that govern the wages in football today? Should anything be done to cap salaries in football and if so what?

What about the argument that a footballer's career is limited to an average of 15 years?

please post ur views
