The terraces23 Mar 2043

Anger at FC Dallas spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Squad23 Mar 2043

A fracture rules Ashton Gordon out for 94 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.

Market23 Mar 2043

Nicholas Simmonds puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at FC Dallas, and it is not being withdrawn.

Player ratings23 Mar 2043

Age has not caught Nicholas Simmonds yet — 8.00

At 36 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.00 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad23 Mar 2043

Brooks Thompson 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.

Match21 Mar 2043

FC Dallas see off Sporting Kansas City

Three points for FC Dallas, 2‑1 the final word against Sporting Kansas City in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad23 Mar 2043

Words at FC Dallas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Andrew Wright 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.

Player ratings23 Mar 2043

Amin Dabbabi runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 14. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad23 Mar 2043

No hiding place for Dominik Bero

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Dominik Bero, and the manager let it.

Squad2 Mar 2043

A fracture rules Ashton Gordon out for 115 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.

Squad2 Mar 2043

18 seasons of Josh Torquato

242 appearances across 18 seasons in these colours. Careers like that are not built any more, and FC Dallas know what they have.

Boardroom2 Mar 2043

13 academy players handed senior numbers at FC Dallas

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad2 Mar 2043

Tempers go at FC Dallas

Malachi Molina 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.

Market2 Mar 2043

Nicholas Simmonds is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at FC Dallas has been clear about where Nicholas Simmonds stands, which is more than many ever get.

Market2 Mar 2043

FC Dallas promote Owen Robinson from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Owen Robinson has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Squad9 Feb 2043

A knee injury of the worst kind for Aaron Sargent

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.

Match9 Feb 2043

Every point is an argument now for FC Dallas

Position 13 and 19 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Market9 Feb 2043

Christian Turner asks to leave FC Dallas

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad9 Feb 2043

Malachi Molina 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.

No hiding place for Artyom Krasnov

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Artyom Krasnov, and the manager let it.

Squad9 Feb 2043

Andrew Wright stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Andrew Wright and FC Dallas agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad14 Apr 2042

Artyom Krasnov: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” FC Dallas have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad14 Apr 2042

Finn Surman 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.

Player ratings14 Apr 2042

Nobody could get near Christian Turner

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad14 Apr 2042

Nicholas Simmonds falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match12 Apr 2042

LA Galaxy take the points off FC Dallas

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad14 Apr 2042

Andrew Wright signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Andrew Wright and FC Dallas agree another 4 years.
