The past year has been memorable for FC Dallas fans, not just for what happened on the field but also for what happened off the field. Going into 2018, we knew this squad would be competing for hardware, putting a disastrous 2017 behind them, back then did we have any clue FC Dallas would trade away rising star Kellyn Acosta and sell assist king Mauro Diaz? Or watch Oscar Pareja take his talents down to Club Tijuana? Who would have thought losing Cristian Colman to a season ending injury spelled potential doom to playoff hopes?
