Can the training section of the Game Manual be updated to include the changes made EOS 51 regarding hard caps on the squad limits?
The manual still suggests all players will recieve some sort of training if over the limit whilst the update in the forum states otherwise.
The following is part of the announcement from EOS49.
SQUAD LIMITS

The current squad soft cap or limits as it is called sometimes will be changed from 22 and 23 respectively for the two academies to 25 for each of them. The penalty for having more than 25 in either squad will increase to 7.5% per player.

After 2 seasons when we get to EOS51 they will be hard caps, which means if you have 25 players in a squad you will not be able to purchase a player relevant to the squad over the limit.
You will be able to do a YR but they will not receive training or play until you fire/sell a player to make room for them. They will be in limbo until you make room, you have until Sunday at 21:00 FTP time to do so. If not then the player will be transfer listed
Players promoting from your youth team will be added to your senior squad but they will not receive training or play until you fire/sell a player to make room for them. They will be in limbo until you make room, you have until Sunday at 21:00 FTP time to do so. If not then the player in question will be transfer listed.
Any player in 'limbo' will have the wages paid should there be a finance update
If you do your Youth recruit on Sunday then you will only have a few hours to fix it if your squad is already at 25

The absolute hardcap has not come in yet, there was an issue with the coding the way we wanted it to work.
Stay tuned as it will be announced next season that the HC will be coming in a slightly different form
