I think what they need to do is limit a club so that they can only spend x amount of their income on wages rather than a wage cap of players. It will still have the desired affect but will be a fairer means as some clubs earn more than others.

Going back to what Shadow said about Man City, Spurs , Villa etc this is why we have so few English players. The average players can earn far more playing in England than they can abroad or back home and so these clubs buy these players instead. It is cheaper to buy a proven player with experience than it is to train up a youngster to the same level so we import the average players from abroad
