We still do not know how injured our Magical Little Unicorn is (at the time of writing) but the initial look does not look good. If Mauro Diaz is indeed unable to play again this year, here are my thoughts on possible replacements, assuming FC Dallas decides to go for a like-for-like switch and keep the 4-2-3-1 formation.
Mauro Rosales
In terms of skill for skill, Mauro Rosales’ game most resembles Mauro Diaz and more than anybody else on the current FC Dallas roster. When he was first acquired in a trade for Blas Perez, many saw this move as a “Mauro Diaz backup” type of plan.
