The focus is on Dallas and Chicago for this week’s MLS review.
FC Dallas, too slow
FC Dallas have played five games, four at home. Three were 1-1 draws, one was a 3-0 skate past the 10-man Sounders and the most recent one was a 1-0 road win over New England.
They did the minimum with a season-opening run of home games against four conference opponents. You don’t get far in MLS by dropping points at home, a lesson Dallas might have to learn the hard way.
They’ve at least looked better than last season’s notorious second-half splat.
