"It been a whole season of us just not being good enough. There are a whole bunch of reasons why we are in this place of not being in the post-season, so now it's about finishing the season in the right way with pride. [We want] to go to Kansas City and try to get a result, but there is no sugar coating it, we were just not good enough."
"We will have a lot of time to dissect it and grow from and learn from it and fix it. I'm very optimistic that we will fix it as we have a pretty clear idea of what went wrong this year. And it was not one or two things. When you have these types of seasons, it is a collective. It just has not worked this year."
Houston Dynamo exited playoff contention after a 4-2 loss to San Diego FC, finishing four points behind the play-in spots ahead of the final game. The team will close the season away at Sporting Kansas City, which sits 14th in the Western Conference and has lost five straight MLS matches. Leadership acknowledged that overall quality was poor and identified multiple collective issues rather than isolated failures. The plan is to finish with pride, use the offseason to dissect and fix problems, and enter next season with optimism based on a clear idea of what went wrong. Dejan Joveljic is a notable player to watch for Sporting KC.
