Patrickson Delgado - Leaving for national team duty Delgado has been called up to the Ecuadorian national team for the upcoming World Cup Qualifiers and will not make the trip tp Vancouver on Saturday.

Impact Delgado is returning to the national team after his stint with the team during Copa America. He's since failed to get a start in MLS play, coming off the bench the last two games while totaling just four minutes of play.

Show - Called up by Angola Show has been called up to Angola's national team for its upcoming 2025 African Cup of Nations qualifiers and will not make the trip to Dallas on Saturday.

Impact Show already made his team debut for Dallas since joining the side on loan. He's started the two games at midfield, playing all 90 minutes while generating three clearances and two shots. Sebastian Lletget will remain in the lineup alongside Asier Illarramendi for the clash with Vancouver,

Maarten Paes - First cap with Indonesia Paes was selected to the Indonesian national team for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers and will not make the trip to Vancouver on Saturday.

Impact Paes got his first callup to the Indonesia national team after making the switch from the Netherlands after acquiring his Indonesian citizenship. He is set to complete his third full campaign with FC Dallas, totaling 110 saves while allowing 45 goals with five clean sheets. In his absence, Jimmy Maurer is set to start in net against Vancouver.

Maarten Paes - Saves PK, allows three in loss Paes made five saves and conceded three goals during Saturday's 3-2 loss against Colorado.

Impact Paes made several big saves along the way but this is very difficult considering a goalkeeper who was beaten three times a positive net for fantasy purposes, even if he saved a penalty like Paes did against Djordje Mihailovic in the 76th minute. With six goals allowed over his last two starts, Paes will try to bounce back during next Saturday's visit to Vancouver.

Sam Junqua - Logs assist in loss Junqua delivered an assist, had one shot on goal, created two chances, sent in four crosses (three accurate), made three tackles (all won) and two clearances and was shown a yellow...

Impact Junqua did a little bit of everything here but what people will remember from this game is the picture-perfect cross he delivered for Petar Musa to head the ball home and score Dallas' second goal in the 65th minute. This was the first assist since April for the versatile defender, who proved here that his on-ball skills could be definitely deployed in a more advanced role.

Petar Musa - Scores off bench in return Musa scored a goal off four shots (one on target) and created two chances after coming off the bench during Saturday's 3-2 loss against Colorado.

Impact Musa was brought as part of a double substitution just after the hour mark and needed just four minutes to show what he's capable of as he headed home a cross from the left to give his side a 2-1 lead. After missing the previous game with an undisclosed issue, the forward returned in style with his ninth goal over the last eight league appearances.

SEPTEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Logan Farrington - Scores in loss Farrington scored a goal off two shots (one on target) during Saturday's 3-2 loss against Colorado.

Impact Farrignton was at the right place to slot the ball home after a rebound off the goalkeeper and open the scoring for Dallas with just six minutes into the game. However, the forward couldn't keep it up during the rest of the contest and that led him to ultimately be subbed off just after the hour mark. Mostly a reserve during the beginning of the season, Farrington was a starter in each of the last six matches and had two goals and two assists during this stretch. With Jesus Ferreira closer to be fully fit, some difficult decisions will have to be made at Dallas front line.

SEPTEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Paul Arriola - Eligible for return Arriola is available for Saturday's trip to Vancouver after a one-match ban.

Impact Arriola missed out last time out but is now available once more. The attacking midfielder should slot straight back into the starting XI, and should be a consistent contributor with six goal contributions so far.

Paul Arriola - Handed ban Arriola picked up his fifth yellow card in 18 matches and is set for a one match suspension.

Impact Arriola will miss just his third MLS match after he was handed a ban for yellow card accumulation. He had scored in the last three league games, totaling 10 goals, which is a season high while also logging in five assists. Sam Junqua is an option to start in the midfield for the clash with Colorado in his absence.

CF Montréal trades Ruan to FC Dallas Montreal will get between US$50,000 and $150,000 in general allocation money from the deal, depending on performance-based conditions.

AUGUST 29 • MONTREALGAZETTE.COM

Ruan - Sets up goal in debut Ruan assisted once to go with four crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus D.C. United.

Impact Ruan set up the team's second goal with a perfect cross from the right wing, and his delivery allowed Sebastian Lletget to drill home a close-range header. This was Ruan's first assist with Dallas in his debut with the team, as he was acquired via trade from Montreal, and he figures to be a mainstay on the right side of the defense throughout the rest of the campaign.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Sebastian Lletget - Plays huge role in win Saturday Lletget scored one goal and assisted twice from two shots and five chances created in Saturday's 4-3 victory against D.C. United.

Impact Lletget was impressive in this win, as he set up two goals and also bagged another one, to take part in three of the team's four goals. The talented playmaker is not going to be this involved in goalscoring sequences on a regular basis, but there's no question his creativity gives him a decent upside from his midfield role.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Illarramendi - Credited with assist Illarramendi assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 4-3 win versus D.C. United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 83rd...

Impact Illarramendi set up Dallas' third goal with a beautiful sequence, as he ran into an open space inside the box and instead of attempting a header home, he set up Paul Arriola, who sloted the ball home from close range. Illarramendi has assisted in his last two MLS appearances, and while he operates as a defensive midfielder, he should continue to have upside due to his creativity and excellent passing. That said, his upside is limited as long as he remains playing in a holding role.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Nkosi Tafari - Scores in win over DC United Tafari scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-3 win versus D.C. United.

Impact Tafari scored an early equalizer for Dallas in this match, as he took advantage of a perfect corner kick from the right wing to drill a volley from inside the box. This was Tafari's third goal of the season, but as a center-back, he's expected to earn most of his value through defensive stats.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Patrickson Delgado - Returns off bench Delgado (knee) appeared off the bench in the 89th minute of Saturday's 4-3 win against D.C. United.

Impact Delgado made an unexpected return Saturday, with the midfielder getting on the field for a mere one minute in the win. This is still great news for the club, as he should be considered fit now. He has started in 12 of his 18 appearances this season and has a decent shot of re-entering the starting XI next contest.

AUGUST 26 • ROTOWIRE

Jesus Ferreira - Appears in 62nd minute Ferreira (leg) appeared as a substitute in the 62nd minute of Saturday's 4-3 win against D.C. United.

Impact Ferreira has been out since mid-June but has finally returned from his leg issues, as he would see 28 minutes off the bench Saturday. This is huge news for the club, as he is an important player for the team, starting in nine of his 14 appearances this season while notching six goal contributions. That said, expect him to get back in the starting XI soon, likely in their next match.

Petar Musa - Late scratch Saturday Musa was a late scratch for Saturday's clash against D. C. United.

Impact Musa was replaced by Logan Farrington in the starting lineup, while Carl Sainte took the empty spot on the bench. The severity of Musa's issue is still unknown as he missed his second straight league game after returning from a one-match ban. He was in great form prior to that suspension, scoring at least one goal in six of his last seven appearances.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Illarramendi - Starting against D. C. United Illarramendi is in the starting lineup to face D. C. United on Saturday.

Impact Illarramendi had been out for a month but bounced back in time for Saturday's clash. The midfielder could be productive in terms of passes and defensive numbers after tallying one goal, three assists, 911 accurate passes, 41 tackles and 23 clearances in 17 appearances this season.
