(Photo by Rich Graessle/Icon Sportswire) NEW YORK — Sky Blue FC was American soccer’s most scandal-ridden team last year. The team’s one win at the end of the season was coupled with reports of training facilities and living conditions below a professional standard. As a new season and a fresh start, at least on the field, approaches, it seems the only way to go for Sky Blue is up. Off the field, the team boasts new furnished apartments for players and a training facility that has showers and other professional amenities. Most notably, though, Sky Blue president and general manager Tony Novo departed after months of criticism, scrutiny, and a public campaign for his firing by the team’s official supporters’ group. On the field, Sky Blue plans to combat defensive issues with the addition of former Washington Spirit defenders Caprice Dydasco and Estelle Johnson, and the group is also excited about additions further up the pitch. Rookie midfielders Julie James and Paige Monaghan have impressed, while Brazilian midfielder Gabi and Japanese forward Nahomi Kawasumi are expected to aid in the team’s attempt to outdo 2018’s total of 21 goals in 24 matches.
