Problem with wage cap...

My wage budget is 98k
Actual squad wage 98k (Beckham 60k alone)
League wage cap 20k

How can I play the game without getting rid of most of my squad???

Isn't the wage cap the maximum you can pay to EACH player not the maximum allowed budget?

As for beckham, he has a dispensation I think.

Beckham has special dispensation under the Star Player ("Beckham") Rule. Each team is allowed ONE star player (A big name international star) on top of their salary cap. You'll find them all over the MLS. I believe other 'Star Players' under the rule include Juan Pablo Angel and Paulo Wanchope.

Plus, in MLS, you already had the ability to run one other player up to a fairly high amount, and have a low amount count against the cap.

For example purposes, start a new game as the L.A. Galaxy. Take away all the squad numbers.

Add players back one at a time, and pay attention to those financial numbers at the bottom.

Neither Beckham nor Donovan will count their full salary against the "Salary Cap", though they will still show up in your "Wage Bill".

Paulo Wanchope has now retired
