Taty Castellanos is certainly New York City FC's best player of the season so far. The Argentine striker was the best performing striker ever and was often decisive for the Blues. His absence against FC Dallas will be very heavy. In fact, Castellanos will not be available as he will have to serve a round of disqualification after being booked in the previous match against New England Revolution.
Ronny Deila will have to figure out how to best replace Taty Castellanos. There are at least three options: Talles Magno, Thiago Andrade and Ismael Tajouri-Shradi. Three players with completely different characteristics from each other and even different from those of Castellanos. It will be very curious to understand what Deila's decision will be. The choice that the New York coach will make may also be important in the future.
The key point will be to maintain a certain depth of the team. Ronny Deila will make his decision with this in mind.
