Squad23 Aug 2038

A knee injury of the worst kind for Noam Ben-Harush

28 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. FC Dallas lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad23 Aug 2038

A fracture rules Jonathan Sirois out for 131 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason FC Dallas will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Player ratings23 Aug 2038

Dylan Dest runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 34. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market23 Aug 2038

Only the photograph left for Zakaria Taifi

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Zakaria Taifi will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around FC Dallas the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad23 Aug 2038

Tempers go at FC Dallas

Caden Clark was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match21 Aug 2038

Whatever happens, FC Dallas do not lose

6 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad23 Aug 2038

Words at FC Dallas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Malachi Molina is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match21 Aug 2038

FC Dallas and Los Angeles Football Club take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings23 Aug 2038

Franco Tassitani could have had three

11 attempts, none of them in. He got into the right places all afternoon, which is the hard part, and did the easy part badly — and that is the version of a bad day a manager can live with.

Squad19 Oct 2037

Justin Reynolds damages knee ligaments — 46 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 46 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match17 Oct 2037

The season ends here for FC Dallas

Minnesota United FC go through. The table said this team was good enough for months and the format does not care what the table said, which is the argument every eliminated club has had with itself since playoffs were invented.

Match19 Oct 2037

FC Dallas up to position 3

48 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Squad19 Oct 2037

Najeeb Yakubu keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” FC Dallas may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad19 Oct 2037

Jonathan Sirois in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at FC Dallas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad19 Oct 2037

Defences have started doubling up on Alaa Ghram

12 goals and a season average of 7.37 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

In brief
