I just started an MLS save and it's been fun...although I've hit a snag in August with registering players. I can't get my salary down past $59k (the cap is $56k) no matter if I unregistered players or not. Any tips on dumping salary? I can't get past the page unless I holiday through it, then it's fine (but I miss games)

if you have transfer budget / allocation left over, go into the screen where you can move the slider between transfer budget and wages towards wages - it will give you a higher salary cap. cant actually tell if this is cheating or allowed in the mls as i dont follow the mls that closely

Bless you, Willy. I had no idea that existed, and it works. Thanks a million (or a couple thousand in cap room)!

Whenever I but a foreign player, he always "has trouble blending into the squad because of the language barrier"

Does that have an effect on the player/team? If so, is there a way to help it?

The only thing that helps is if there are other players of that nationality on the team. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until that player learns the language.

I was wondering about this as well. For instance, if I have a midfielder who is having difficulties blending into the squad and is from Argentina, does the game help if my entire midfield speaks Spanish?

And ugh, I always knew the MLS keep playing on during international fixtures was a real-life annoyance, but now I understand it even more in FM.

What do you look for to use the switch positions tactic?

I've always used stick to position.
