As the Dynamo entered the offseason late last October, general manager Matt Jordan and head coach Owen Coyle identified several specific areas they wanted to address to improve the squad before next season. Now, midway through preseason and just 20 days from the 2016 season opener on March 6 against New England at BBVA Compass Stadium, it’s clear the technical staff is pleased with the offseason plan and the new look of the roster.
The offseason priorities for the roster were clear: get younger and more athletic, add more depth throughout the team, add more pace and power in the wide areas, and add more creativity in the final third of the field.
