While center back and goalkeeper have seen frequent changes, Franklin and Kemp have played every minute of the MLS campaign in 2016
It’s been a trying 2016 for D.C. United. They were immediately dumped out of the CONCACAF Champions League in March - for the second consecutive year - and failed to get clear their first hurdle in the US Open Cup despite a home game against a lower-division side. In the league, the Black-and-Red have just five wins in MLS play in 19 games. While they aren't losing that often, United's total of 18 goals scored has meant many less-than-exciting games.
