After a shorter winter than last, the FC Dallas Agenda is back for its second season covering all things FC Dallas soccer. Ryan Figert, Garrett Melcer, and Steve Davis spend the first segment getting you back up to speed on everything you might have missed the Burn doing during this off-season. Signings, departures, the Superdraft, all that and more are covered.

Then the first guest of the year is a big one, as FC Dallas Chief Soccer Officer Andre Zanotta joins the Agenda for a long ranging interview. He talks the new signings from this off-season, the status of Dallas' open Designated Player Spot, the process behind Dallas' current player acquisition strategy, and what he's looking forward to most as the team heads to Portugal later this week.

To close out the season 2 debut the lads talk about the one big thing they each want to see from the club as they go through their initial workouts ahead of the February 21st opener against Toronto FC at Toyota Stadium.

The FC Dallas off-season is in full swing, and the next major date on the calendar is the 2026 MLS SuperDraft set for December 18th. In anticipation of that event Ryan and Garrett got together for a quick primer about what to expect from the event and Dallas' recent history of finding gems.

Then we get to a pair of interviews starting with FC Dallas' Director of Scouting Leo Baldo making his return to the Agenda. He discusses the process of finding players for the draft, what the club is looking for both in style and outcome, and much much more.

That's followed up with a chat from one of Dallas' best recent draft picks in striker Logan Farrington. The former #3 overall selection talks the draft process from a player perspective, what his draft day looked like before being picked by the Burn, and his ramp up period going from major college soccer to MLS in a matter of months.

This afternoon the world found out all 16 groups for the 2026 FIFA World Cup happening across North America. After the teams discovered their fate, Garrett and Ryan got the first blush reaction from a trio of players connected to FC Dallas who are strong contenders to play for their nations next year for the biggest prize of them all.

Garrett starts us off talking to Crystal Palace defender Chris Richards and Olympique Lyon midfielder Tanner Tessman who hope to represent the US against Paraguay, Australia, and a mystery UEFA playoff winner.

Ryan then steps in to speak live from Croatia with current FC Dallas striker Petar Musa. They talk about his goal which sent Croatia to the World Cup as well as his thoughts on potentially facing England, Ghana, and Panama next year.
