Smart allocation of resources is a critical result of good management. In any walk of life, those that manager organisations successfully take the resources they have, from financial investments to personnel and staff, and invest them efficiently to produce the most positive effect.
This is especially true in Major League Soccer. Where in global football, the rich clubs can spend and spend, as long as they abide by Financial Fair Play, that is not the case in MLS. There is a spending cap and roster designations, all designed to restrict the spending of teams and create parity across the league.
