HEAD COACH CALEB PORTER Head coach Caleb Porter enters his third season with the club in 2015 after guiding the Portland Timbers to record-setting campaigns in his first two years in MLS. Guiding the team to an impressive turnaround season and the club’s first-ever MLS postseason appearance in 2013, Porter helped direct a record-setting offense in 2014 as the Timbers netted 61 regular-season goals, a club record across all eras. He was announced as the Timbers head coach on Aug. 29, 2012, and joined the club ahead of the 2013 MLS campaign. Porter received the Slats Gill Award for Sportsperson of the Year at the Oregon Sports Awards on March 9, 2014, becoming the fourth soccerrelated figure to receive the award since it was founded in 1957. On Aug. 6, 2014, Porter helped guide the MLS All-Stars to a 2-1 win over German power Bayern Munich in the 2014 AT&T MLS All-Star Game at Providence Park in Portland. The 2013 MLS Coach of the Year award winner, Porter has compiled one of the league’s top winning percentages among active MLS head coaches with a 35-21-33 mark (.579) after leading Portland to double-digits wins in each of his first two seasons. Under Porter’s guidance, the Timbers have made Providence Park one of the toughest places to play in the league, registering an impressive regularseason mark of 22-5-18 at Providence Park over the last two-plus seasons. In 2014, the Timbers netted a team-record 61 goals while compiling one of the highest point totals (44) across the final two-thirds of the regular season – recording the highest goal differential (plus-9) of any non-playoff team in MLS history. Portland also made its first appearance in CONCACAF Champions League, contesting matches against Alpha United of Guyana and C.D. Olimpia of Honduras during the competition’s group stage. During Porter’s first season as head coach in 2013, the Timbers assembled one of the biggest turnaround seasons in MLS. In comparison to 2012 totals, the Timbers assembled a 23-point improvement in points and an MLS-record 43-goal improvement in goal differential. Portland’s five losses during the 2013 regular season tied for the fewest in MLS history in a 34-game season and the Timbers led the league with 15 shutouts. The Timbers recorded a 15-game, home unbeaten streak during the 2013 regular season, posting a league-best 11-1-5 home record at Providence Park and an MLS singleseason record 11 home shutouts. In 2013, Portland qualified for the MLS Cup Playoffs for the first time since joining the league in 2011. Additionally, the Timbers made their deepest run in club history in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup in 2013 under Porter’s guidance, reaching the semifinals of the tournament. Prior to joining the Timbers, Porter was one of the most successful coaches in NCAA history during his tenure as head coach at the University of Akron (2006-12). He compiled a career mark of 123-18-17 and was named 2009 NSCAA National Coach of the Year. Porter led the Zips to back-to-back NCAA College Cup appearances (2009, 2010) and the school’s first national title in any sport in 2010. Porter’s coaching career also includes time as the head coach of the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team during 2012 CONCACAF Olympic qualifying and three years as an assistant coach on the U.S. U-18 National Team (2009-11). Porter was an assistant coach for six years (2000-05) at Indiana University. As a player, Porter was the 27th overall pick by the San Jose Clash in the 1998 MLS College Draft. He spent time with San Jose and the Tampa Bay Mutiny before a knee injury ended his professional playing career in 2000. He also played for the U.S. National B Team from 1996-97, winning a bronze medal at the 1997 World University Games. As a player at Indiana, he was a three-year captain and led the Hoosiers to four conference titles. Porter was the runner-up for the 1997 Hermann Trophy.

PORTLAND TIMBERS AT FC DALLAS SATURDAY, JULY 25, 2015 SCOUTING FC DALLAS
UPCOMING MILESTONES
FC Dallas enters Saturday’s match in first place on points (35) in the Western Conference standings and has won four straight games, including wins at Toyota Stadium over Eastern Conference sides New England (3-0 on July 4) and D.C. United (2-1 on July 18). Head coach Oscar Pareja’s side has compiled a 7-1-2 overall mark at Toyota Stadium this season with its lone blemish being a 4-0 loss against the Colorado Rapids on April 10. Dynamic winger Fabian Castillo leads the team with eight goals and six assists in 19 appearances, while midfielder Mauro Diaz has registered four goals and six assists. Forward Blas Pérez has tallied five goals in 14 games, but has missed the last several matches while on international duty with Panama at the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
With his next assist, midfielder Jack Jewsbury will move into a tie for 10th place overall on the Timbers all-time career assists chart with Timbers Ring of Honor member Jimmy Conway (1978-80). Jewsbury currently sits in 11th place with 15 assists for Portland since 2011.
IN CONTROL According to Opta, Timbers midfielder Darlington Nagbe is the only player in MLS to have at least 40 dribbles completed and a passing accuracy of at least 85 percent. Nagbe has completed 52 dribbles and has a passing accuracy of 88.98 percent.
GOOD FORM The Timbers enter Saturday’s game having won six of their last nine matches in MLS regular-season play, compiling a 6-2-1 record during the span. Portland has won seven of its last 12 (7-4-1) league matches heading into the game against FC Dallas. The Timbers put together a five-game winning streak from May 27-June 20.
LATE-GAME DRAMATICS Never out of a contest, the Timbers are first in the league with 10 goals scored in the final 15 minutes of games. Recently, Portland netted a stoppage-time, game-winning goal on July 5 against San Jose and two goals after the 75th minute in a 4-1 win against Seattle on June 28. In the final 30 minutes of games, the Timbers also rank first with 15 goals scored.
MULTI-GOAL GAMES Timbers forward Fanendo Adi ranks tied for second in MLS this season with three multi-goal games, behind Columbus striker Kei Kamara (4). Adi has registered seven multi-goal games in his MLS career since joining the Timbers in May 2014, which ranks as the most in MLS over that span. Adi leads the Timbers with eight goals in 21 regular-season appearances this season.
MAESTRO Midfielder Diego Valeri has registered at least a goal or an assist in three of the team’s last four regular-season matches, including the go-ahead goal in a 1-1 draw against Vancouver on July 18. The Timbers have compiled a 2-1-1 record during the span. Valeri missed the first eight games of the regular season rehabbing offseason ACL surgery and then missed three games from May 27-June 6 after sustaining a sprained ankle on May 23 at Toronto FC.

* - As of July 23, 2015
Defender Nat Borchers’ next goal will be his 15th career MLS goal. Entering the week, Borchers has netted 14 career goals since 2003, including two with the Timbers. His next goal will also tie a single-season MLS career high (3) set in 2011 with Real Salt Lake. Midfielder Diego Valeri will make his 75th career MLS appearance for the Timbers on Saturday if he plays against FC Dallas. Valeri has registered MLS Timbers career high marks in goals (23) and assists (30) since joining the team in 2013. Saturday marks Timbers head coach Caleb Porter’s 90th career MLS regularseason match since taking over as head coach before the start of the 2013 season.
KEEPING CLEAN SHEETS Timbers goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey ranks tied for first in MLS with eight clean sheets in 20 appearances this season. Kwarasey, who is in his first season with the Timbers, ranks tied for second in wins (9) and tied for third in the league in minutes played (1,800).
BLOCK PARTY No player in MLS has more blocks this season than Timbers defender Nat Borchers (24). At his current pace, Borchers will finish the season having blocked 38 shots, which would be the most in a season since Opta started tracking MLS stats in 2011.
DIVERSE ATTACK Entering the weekend, the Timbers rank fourth in the league in the number of players who have tallied at least a goal or an assist this season. Portland has seen 14 players contributed at least one point through the team’s 21 matches, which trails Colorado (17), D.C. United (16) and Toronto FC (15).
TIMBERS ACQUIRE MELANO On July 17, the Timbers announced that the club acquired Argentine forward Lucas Melano, who joins Portland from Argentine first-division side Club Atlético Lanús. Melano joined Lanús in July 2013 and tallied a team-leading five goals in 14 games during the 2015 Argentine Primera División season. The 6-foot1 forward made 42 league appearances for the club since 2013, recording eight goals and also helping the side to a championship in the 2013 Copa Sudamericana as one of tournament’s leading scorers. A native of Hernando, Argentina, Melano began his professional career with Argentine first-division club Belgrano, earning his first-team debut on March 17, 2012, after working his way through the club’s youth ranks. Melano recorded seven goals in 44 career league appearances for Belgrano, helping the club qualify for the 2013 Copa Sudamericana competition with a third-place finish in the 2012-13 Torneo Inicial season. At the youth national team level, Melano was named to the Argentina Under-20 National Team roster for the 2013 Campeonato Sudamericano U-20 tournament, appearing in three matches and scoring a goal in a 2-2 draw against Bolivia on Jan. 13, 2013.
