Mauro Diaz, FC Dallas' mercurial playmaker.
So it's over. FC Dallas missed the playoffs. It took a perfect storm of a collapse to make it happen but it's done and it's time to move on.
So move on we shall. On to 2018.
First a couple thoughts about the nature of any rebuild...
1. Dallas finished 2017 tied on points with San Jose, but finished 7th in the West based on the tiebreaker of wins. League wide, nine teams finished below FCD and for more than half the season this was a first place side.
