Lol. So if Red Bull decided to increase the RBNY budget by 5x the current amount it wouldn't affect our chances at winning MLS Cup? We would still have the same chance, right? lolllll

Obviously you still have to manage your roster wisely, which Toronto and Miami have failed spectacularly to do. Spending is not a guarantee of success, but it is looking more and more like a minimum requirement.
The guys eating up all of Toronto's salary are guys who helped them win two titles in 2017. They just refuse to cut the cord, especially with Jozy, while making some other questionable decisions like hiring Chris Armas.
Miami is its own special shitshow. Of course if you spend on a DP like Higuian who thinks he can have a cigarette on the field and shows up 20 pounds overweight you're going to struggle. Shep literally asked during our first broadcasted game against them if Higuian was enjoying too much pizza since arriving in the US lol
Because higuain is tearing up the league... in smoking cigarettes?No they wouldn't.
being completely honest i dont care where we rank on the salary list as long as we are willing to pay transfer fees. When signing young players and having the amount of homegrowns we have you are always likely to be bottom half of league for salaries. But when acquiring these guys we need to commit to paying material fees so we get the best raw talent to work with. at minimum need more Reyes / Yearwood talents here though ideally we'd aim even higher.
In MLS the salary list of most teams is just a measure of how much salary you pay your DPs.

If you scan YouTube looking for Bradley Wright-Phillips, youll find numerous goal compilations, a few interviews and, eventually, an excerpt from the grime mixtape series Lord of the Mics.
We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.
That Hall of Busts is nightmare fuel for a salary capped league. That's over a quarter of our cap tied to guys who can't even make the bench.
Flying under the radar this year is Duncan's precarious contract situation. There's been no talks of renewal or contract options, and there ain't no way he's sticking around any longer for $89k. Personally I'd prefer him over Edwards if it came down to it.

There are outliers, but when you look at all of soccer across the world, the more money spent, the better the team. The points/$ is great! Add more money and you get more points.

I fully expect Duncan to sign somewhere in France and then spend his free time partying with cousin Timmy. I mean, wouldn't you?
"They better keep playing that RB Arena update because that unbuilt stadium is the only positive thing about this soft-drink-selling, coached-by-a-dumbass, trading-good-players-for-shit, hopeless, retarded, club." - MetroFanatic
"It was always six weeks away. Every month, [Nick Sakiewicz] would say, we're six weeks away from the stadium. It's been the longest six weeks of my life." - Mike Petke
"I think every country can learn everything about each other. If the whole world can be together, it can be good." - Mathias Jorgensen
"I want to give you lots of titles for your happiness. Lots of hugs.” - Fabio
So many guys on that list who are guaranteed goners and they make a ton of money.
Royer - 818K
Diarra - 398K
Pendant - 385K
Jensen - 364K
Jorgensen - 356K
Egbo - 310K
Gotta figure some guys will be getting raises as well but that is a lot of money coming off the books where almost anything we bring in will offer more on the field.
There were rumors that he turned down a contract extension and had interest from Europe. We discussed it quite a bit but I have not heard anything definite.

A team with one of the richest owners, in the biggest market, with name and jerseys covered in advertising, AND the second lowest payroll while sitting outside the playoff picture currently is such an embarrassment.
Get out of here red bull.
Right. Leaving out Miami and Toronto as others have pointed out, teams are getting better returns by players in the 2-3M range than the top earners in the list and it appears the league is moving in that direction.Of course, but spending little or none is unhelpful.
Some teams made major mid-season signings:

This offseason will be more telling if the FlO intends to go that way, and also what it does about those albatrosses contracts in the books.
