In europe these are faily transparent...Does anyone know what some of the players are earning? Are we likely to find out? I know there is a 2 million salary cap, which makes it even more interesting to know how its distributed. Surely Daniel would be on quite a bit and they're probably paying Costa $9.50 an hour.

Not all that transparent in Europe - the big big names wages get released, usually as a "look at me, look at me" by the player or his agent, and occasionally by the clubs to demonstrate that they are 'serious' about spending money.  There's no need to do that here, the salary cap means that no one is going to earn stupid money (except Juninho), clubs don't have to 'impress' supporters.
