I think that is fair…it’s also another reason why I think they’ll stick to a U22 model again this year.
Fill the other spots but DP spots are must hit areas. We saw what happened when you throw together a plan because of an unexpected departure (Acosta). There’s no rush, take your time and level set with your fanbase why you’re doing this versus sitting in silence for 3 months

A very interesting read for #FCDallas fans. Lots of talking points to think through for sure as the offseason rolls on.
A season with some wild ups and downs, the 2025 FC Dallas team made a surprise run into the post-season. Petar Musa emerged as a star in MLS even after the departure of Lucho Acosta. What’s next for Dallas in 2026? For FAM:

Don’t love that.
Sources: MLS has drastically scaled back its hiring policy around front office and coaching positions. The league has eliminated its minority interview requirements and many of the enforcement mechanisms surrounding those mandates. More details here.

We’re also working on a grade for each move made (incoming and outgoing) for the 2025 season. Boy, #FCDallas made a lot of moves this year. We’re not finished and have already 3k words down on these moves.

Oooh…I wouldn’t hate Haak in Dallas next to Urhoghide.
🇺🇸 Justin Haak is a name to watch this winter.

The NYCFC defender is out of contract after a career-year as a ball-playing CB. Will be a ton of interest in MLS free agency but also Championship teams are among those interested for January move

So, no #USMNT in Dallas until maaaaybe the World Cup (non group games)? Don’t love that.
The USMNT's 2026 schedule is nearly set:

⚽️ pre-World Cup camp in Atlanta, May friendly on East Coast
🇩🇪 Sendoff game in Chicago vs. Germany
🇧🇪🇵🇹 March friendlies confirmed
