Behind enemy lines with Garrett Melcer of FC Dallas | March 29, 2023

It's all eyes on Dallas in this episode of Talk Timbers!

Hosts Judah Newby and Jake Zivin discuss the Timbers' upcoming road trip to Texas this Saturday afternoon (kickoff: April 1, 2023 at 5:30pm PT). They reminisce on some of the past challenges of playing at Toyota Stadium and discuss the growth of former Timber Marco Farfan, who has become one of Dallas's most consistent players.

The hosts then invite FC Dallas writer Garrett Melcer on the show to give us insight into the team the Timbers will face on Saturday. Melcer mentions their recent loss to reigning MLS Cup champions, LAFC, but emphasizes their positive mentality and resilience in their previous games, coming back after conceding an early goal. He also talks about their "star man", 22-year-old forward Jesús Ferreira who scored 18 goals last season—a club record.
