I don't think players are as mercenary as a lot of people seem to think. Yes, you will get a few that are only interested in fattening their bank accounts, but Mancini himself has a very good reputation in world football (a lot better than the Twitcher) and many would like to work under him because of his impressive record in Europe.
These players will be more than aware of what's happened to our club over the past season (change of manager mid-season, the horrific events concerning Adebayor, the goalkeeping crisis, etc), and I believe most of them will overlook the fact that we won't be playing C.L. next season. They will be intelligent enough to realise that we're going in the right way and many of them will want to be in on the ground floor.
