Well, the wait is over. Starting tomorrow, New York City FC’s 2019 season will kick off against Orlando City on the road. And what a weird journey it’s been to this point.
Early on in the offseason, David Villa announced his departure from New York after four seasons. Not long after that, NYCFC had a mass exodus of players which included fan favorites such as Yangel Herrera and Tommy McNamara. Needless to say, many of the team’s supporters expected a much different New York City in 2019 by the time the 2019 MLS season rolled around.
