Became a fan towards the end of last season. I even started a fifa regular season tournament recently just so I can learn about all the players on our team.

It's been pretty disturbing to see most of our good players leave 😭. Jesus gone, velasco gone, tafari gone, and Paul gone.

Petar musa and our young players seems to be all we got right now. Hopefully Logan and pepi can ball out I guess.

Reddit only lets me post 1 picture, but feel free to PM me for more.

They ran a promo in the 2023 season, giving all T-Mobile customers a free MLS Season Pass. They stopped it last season because it was overpowered by Messi becoming the face of the league, but they have brought it back.

It is coming out on February 18 on the T-Life App.

hi, I’m a representative of AmerykańskaPiłka, a Polish portal dedicated to USMNT and MLS. Every year, we publish a MLS guide, and this year it will be printed again. We've added a new theme to this year’s guide because our plan is to interview passionate fans from each team about topics like matchday traditions, away days, tips on how to enjoy a match to the fullest, and include this in the guide. If we gather enough content, it will also be featured on the guide and our website. Here are the questions we’re asking:

1. What does matchday mean to you, which match are you most excited for, and what’s your best memory from away games?
2. what do the team colors mean to you, your experiences, traditions, how long you've been a fan, and when did you join the supporters' club?
3. Practical tips for European fans—what’s a typical matchday like, how to get to the stadium, where to stay, when to arrive, how to find the supporters' section, where to eat and drink, any specific spots where fans gather, is there a pub/bar, and what are the must-see places in the area around the stadium?
4. Is there any other sports team in the city worth checking out when we come for an MLS game?
5. Do you have a dedicated fan shop—does it exist at the stadium? Is it possible to tour the stadium? Is there a club museum?
6. Are there different supporters’ groups? If so, can you share a little bit about what makes each one unique?
7. Any special tips for newcomers? Which opponents should we go see, and which ones might not be as exciting? What are the prices for different matches?
8. Is there a chance to see how the supporters' groups prepare their tifo or banners?
9. If you have any other ideas, I'd love to learn something new

Looks like I missed out on buying a ticket to the game down in houston with the bus pass included, anybody have an extra ticket + bus I can buy?

Clark Hunt is making space in the trophy case, partying with Taylor Swift, and getting his team in the history books.

Meanwhile, in Frisco, his brother Dan is decidedly NOT doing anything close to that.

Can we trade for a Hunt sister or someone else in the family?

Is there anywhere online or in person I can buy this quarter zip from?

Zanotta seemed to indicate on the FCD podcast that important incoming moves are coming soon. Probably after the MLS window opens January 31st.

This probably has to be the worst team on paper, just a bunch of unexperienced academy players , and we are also loaning them out. Why calm them up if you aren't going to play them????

Why we're considering banning **both posts AND comments** linking to Twitter:

1. Links are extremely unfriendly if you're not signed in to a Twitter account.
2. The UX is not good and has only declined.
3. Slow loading.
4. Elon did a Nazi salute.

Alternatives to posting an X link:

1. Posting the [MLS](https://www.mlssoccer.com/) or [FC Dallas](https://www.fcdallas.com/) news links.
2. Screenshotting the Twitter post and submitting the image to the subreddit.
3. If it's a video highlight, videos can be directly uploaded to the subreddit.
4. Finding the post on Bsky and posting that link (much more friendly to users that aren't logged in).

This poll will be closed in two days. Instead of making an autonomous mod decision, we thought it best to leave it to the users of this subreddit.

In the meantime, here are some FC Dallas related follows on Bluesky (starter pack):

View Poll

With the recent rumors of Neymar Jr coming to Chicago, should we expect our home opener’s ticket prices to sky rocket like we saw with Inter Miami during Leagues Cup?

Hi! I'm creating a short YouTube series to explore my interest of soccer to document local dallas soccer culture. It would be a 15-20 minute interview at a coffee shop cut down to 10 minutes. It's mainly playful and just a fun way to display persona and allow people to hopefully discover more about a local team through an interview. If you play for any local/uni leagues or know anyone who you think would be interested it would greatly help!

With the season kicking off in just a few weeks, I wanted to reach out and see how I could help each and everyone of you come to matches this season.

With the limited capacity, tickets will be a little harder to come by, so if you need help with single match tickets, group tickets, or season memberships, please do not hesitate to contact me khouser@fcdallas.com or call/text 469.365.0006.

Thank you for being fans. 51 Days and a wake up until the Home Opener.

We shouldn’t be surprised that Indonesia FC gutted the team and has yet to show a viable plan for wining the 2026 MLS CUP.

After all it did sell the flag pole to the highest bidder.

Mood: Irate

How are we feeling? We have a stripped down team with Jesus, Paul and Velasco gone. Musa might be next, who knows?

Complete rebuild at this point but at least we have a ton a GAM? Are we going to sign another DP with Jesus and Velasco leaving?

I’m conflicted because I understand the roster was stuck with contracts that were on the books and the stadium being half of what it normally is but I really thought they could have built around Velasco and Musa.

Hopefully more moves are coming that build the team in a positive way.

Watched most of the season for North Texas this year so I figure this may help breakdown the 5 North Texas SC players that FC Dallas to homegrown contracts today. They are:

-Diego García (18, CM)

-Anthony Ramirez (19, AM)

-Michael Collodi (23, GK)

-Malachi Molina (18, RB)

-Diego Pepi (20, FW)

-Daniel Baran (18, FW)

Diego Garcia showed a lot of promise this year, getting solid playing time in a tandem with Nolan Norris. Showed a lot of promise going forward. Will likely see some first team minutes in the coming years.

Anthony Ramirez had a solid year, but is not MLS ready at the moment, more experience is needed for the young attacker.

Goalies moving up a level are always hard to predict, but some of the saves I saw this year from Michael Collodi were truly top class. Would not be shocked if he finds his way into competing for the backup spots on the main team. Obviously his age stands out amongst the rest but goalies can take longer to develop.

Malachi Molina and Daniel Baran showed promise in their minutes this year, these contracts are likely to keep them satisfied during their development. While they’re still a ways away from MLS playing time, they’ll see plenty more action in the lower divisions here soon.

Diego Pepi has plenty of promise, though leagues less than his Brother, but still has an eye for goal. His 2024 season was a bit tumultuous, as he had some game winners as well as some real stinkers. Being a young striker is difficult. Will likely spend more time with North Texas.

Rather than making three different posts I thought I do one big one:

Michael Collodi (https://x.com/fcdallas/status/1877415795711520929?s=46&t=W57Zw9u1kT8qCfi8U94RPw)

Anthony Ramirez (https://x.com/fcdallas/status/1877399940474826885?s=46&t=W57Zw9u1kT8qCfi8U94RPw)
