"Trying to express myself, take risks": Alex Muyl looks forward to playing without fear in 2017

Alex Muyl had a successful rookie year for the New York Red Bulls. He broke into the first team at the first attempt, finishing 2016 with 2008 minutes, 33 appearances, 22 starts, six assists and three goals in all competitions. His second year as a pro has got off to a more challenging start. He was injured in preseason, taking a knock against New England Revolution that was only known as "the Alex situation" until RBNY revealed Muyl had suffered "facial fractures" and would start the year playing in a mask.
