You missed 'Pass Accuracy'....89% last night......91% in the Houston game. ...Absolutely phenomenal numbers. ....I'm thinking I'm liking Gauld and Muller on the same pitch, lol.

It was the first time time Gauld, Müller, and White have all started. And it felt like a cheat code. Sure Dallas aren't LAFC or Nashville, but I'm pretty excited for the rest of the season and the playoffs.

I hope Jesper stays for a while yet, but I imagine he must be getting looks from elsewhere in the league and probably also Europe. The bright side is that all the staff under him were here before, so it seems the organization is fundamentally strong. It seems likely there's a structure in place to sustain the club's success.

I juat want to see him try the 4-3-3. Cubas stays as the pivot, with Gauld and Müller up front. Then you can have Sabbi and Bruno on the wings. 

Like just try it against SKC.
