New York City FC had an exciting and entertaining season. Yes, it may have ended in a devastating fashion, but there is no denying the team had an impressive regular season. The Pigeons finished at the top of the East with 64 points and were second in the league overall.
New players like Héber broke onto the MLS scene with 15 goals, while the team’s first homegrown player, James Sands, helped lock down the backline. Plus, many of the starting core are locked in on multi-year contracts, like Sean Johnson and Anton Tinnerholm. Despite the positives, however, NYCFC have many particulars to address, both on and off the pitch.
