If you’re like me, you probably felt like FC Dallas was having a better season than being on 26 points from 19 games. D.C. United is facing MLS’s preeminent #PlayYourKids club, and for once the narrative around a team is showing some respect. For a team fielding numerous teenagers in starting roles in the spine of their team, they’re doing really well! However, it has to be said that they’re on a 2W-4D-5L run at the moment, and their last game against Portland was typical: they did well enough to get a draw (or maybe even a win), but they didn’t quite have the guile to get the job done.
