The '''2011 New York Red Bulls season''' was the club's seventeenth year of existence, as well as its sixteenth season in [[Major League Soccer]], the top-flight of American soccer.

After a successful turnaround season in 2010, in which Red Bulls finished in third place overall before losing in the quarterfinals of the post-season tournament, the club started 2011 hoping to find consistency, make a deeper run in the [[MLS Cup Playoffs]], and vie for the [[MLS Supporters Shield|Supporters Shield]]. By season's end it was clear the club failed on all three fronts. Red Bulls were labeled the biggest underachievers in MLS after performing with a maddening inconsistency, struggling even to earn the 10th and final spot in an expanded playoff field, and falling again in the [[2011 MLS Cup Playoffs|playoff]] quarterfinals.

Prior to the 2011 MLS season, New York Red Bulls manager [[Hans Backe]] declared that the club's goal for the season was to win the Shield, claiming that it was more of a test for the league title rather than the MLS Cup, which he called a ''crapshoot''.<ref>{{cite news |title=Red Bulls aim for Supporters' Shield first, then Cup |author=Brian Lewis |url=http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/red_bulls_aim_for_shield_first_then_lc1DUoL1g4xwesneyZl1qK |newspaper=The New York Post |date=February 14, 2011 |accessdate=February 14, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110219011422/http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/red_bulls_aim_for_shield_first_then_lc1DUoL1g4xwesneyZl1qK |archive-date=February 19, 2011 |url-status=dead  }}</ref> As this goal drifted out of reach, Backe backtracked from his Supporters' Shield emphasis and remarkably blamed international call-ups due to the [[2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup]] as the reason the Shield was unobtainable. New York ended the season 21 points shy of the Shield. At the conclusion of the season, Backe acknowledged that he didn't know the biennial CONCACAF tournament was being held in 2011.<ref>{{cite news |title=Red Bulls: The View From the Back Line |author=Jack Bell |url=http://goal.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/08/red-bulls-the-view-from-the-back-line/ |newspaper=The New York Times |date=November 8, 2011 |accessdate=November 24, 2011}}</ref> That lack of awareness seemed to haunt the club throughout the season, both on field and off. The average MLS regular season and playoff home attendance of the New York Red Bulls in 2011 was 20,000.

== Month-by-Month Overview ==

=== November 2010 ===
On November 4, due to the 2010 season ending with a disappointing home playoff loss to [[San Jose Earthquakes]], the roster changes began immediately. The playoff loss marked the end of the careers for defender [[Mike Petke]] and midfielder [[Seth Stammler]], each of whom had announced his retirement upon completion of the season.  Petke joined the Red Bulls front office in January;<ref>[http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/01/legendary-new-york-defender-mike-petke-joins-red-bulls-front-office Legendary New York defender Mike Petke joins Red Bulls front office {{pipe}} New York Red Bulls]</ref> Stammler pursued an MBA degree at the [[University of Chicago]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.chicagomaroon.com/2010/10/8/mls-to-mba-an-interview-with-seth-stammler |title=MLS to MBA: An interview with Seth Stammler - The Chicago Maroon |access-date=February 8, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101014171305/http://www.chicagomaroon.com/2010/10/8/mls-to-mba-an-interview-with-seth-stammler |archive-date=October 14, 2010 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

On November 22, the Red Bulls traded midfielder/defender [[Jeremy Hall (soccer)|Jeremy Hall]] to the expansion [[Portland Timbers]] in exchange for a third-round pick in the [[2011 MLS SuperDraft]]. Two days later the [[2010 MLS Expansion Draft]] was held but neither Portland nor fellow expansion side [[Vancouver Whitecaps FC (MLS)|Vancouver Whitecaps]] selected an available Red Bulls player.

The coaching staff saw assistant Coach [[Goran Aral]] leave the club after one season.

Internationally, forward [[Juan Agudelo]] and defender [[Tim Ream]] each earned their first senior caps with the [[United States men's national soccer team|U.S. National Team]] on November 17. Playing in [[Cape Town]] against [[South Africa national football team|South Africa]], Ream started and played 67 minutes while Agudelo came on as a 60th-minute substitute. Agudelo then scored the game's only goal in the 85th minute, winning the match and becoming the youngest scorer in U.S. Men's Team history at 17 years, 359 days.<ref>[http://espn.go.com/sports/soccer/news/_/id/5818373/juan-agudelo-17-scores-lift-us-south-africa-friendly Juan Agudelo, 17, scores to lift U.S. past South Africa in friendly - ESPN]</ref> Agudelo bested the mark previously held by [[Jozy Altidore]], who also set the mark while a member of New York Red Bulls.

=== December 2010 ===
The departure of captain [[Juan Pablo Ángel]] was made official when Red Bulls declined his 2011 contract option and he opted to participate in the inaugural [[2010 MLS Re-Entry Draft|MLS Re-Entry Draft]]. Midfielder [[Luke Sassano]] and defender [[Carey Talley]] also elected to participate in the Re-Entry draft when their 2011 contract options were declined. On December 15, [[Los Angeles Galaxy]] traded up in the draft order to select Ángel. On January 19 the sides agreed terms on a multi-year, [[Designated Player Rule|Designated Player]] contract.

Sassano was also selected by [[Los Angeles Galaxy]] in the Re-Entry Draft but his rights were traded to [[Sporting Kansas City]] later that same day. He signed with Sporting KC on January 12, 2011. Talley was not selected and subsequently announced his retirement on January 19, 2011. Red Bulls did not select any players in the Re-Entry draft.

On December 17, the club announced a trade with [[Houston Dynamo]] in which Red Bulls received an undisclosed amount of allocation money. In return, Houston received New York's natural third-round selection in the [[2012 MLS SuperDraft]] and the rights to defender [[Hunter Freeman]], whom Houston immediately signed. Red Bulls had traded Freeman to [[Toronto FC]] for the last months of the [[2008 MLS season]] even though Freeman had already agreed a pre-contract with [[IK Start]] of the [[Tippeligaen|Norwegian Premier League]]. The trade with Toronto included a provision that Red Bulls retain Freeman's MLS rights should he return to the league.

In international duty, midfielder [[Dane Richards]] scored three goals over five games to help [[Jamaica national football team|Jamaica]] win the 2010 [[Caribbean Cup]].

=== January 2011 ===
The club was active in January 2011 with a number of players coming and going. The long-rumored acquisitions of Norwegian midfielder [[Jan Gunnar Solli]] and English forward [[Luke Rodgers]] were finalized on January 26 and 28, respectively. The club also signed young Brazilian midfielder [[Marcos Paullo]], who had trialed with New York in 2010, on January 30.

Red Bulls announced the signing of two more Homegrown players from Red Bull Academy in January: midfielder [[Matt Kassel]] and defender [[Šaćir Hot]]. Kassel and Hot joined prior Academy signings [[Juan Agudelo]] and Giorgi Chirgadze on the Red Bulls roster.

At the January 13 [[2011 MLS SuperDraft|2011 SuperDraft]], the club selected [[Generation adidas]] forward [[Corey Hertzog]] in round one, English midfielder [[John Rooney (footballer)|John Rooney]] (brother of English international [[Wayne Rooney]]) and defender [[Tyler Lassiter]] in round two, and defender Billy Cortes in round three. The following week, Red Bulls selected goalkeeper [[Jimmy Maurer]] and defender [[Teddy Schneider]] in the [[2011 MLS Supplemental Draft|2011 Supplemental Draft]]. Of the draft choices,  Hertzog and Rooney were immediately added to the club's roster as both had already signed contracts with [[Major League Soccer]].  Lassiter, Cortes, Maurer, and Schneider were not guaranteed contracts and were invited to preseason training camp to earn a spot on the club's final roster.

On January 17, the club announced that [[Jan Halvor Halvorsen]] had been hired as assistant coach, replacing [[Goran Aral]].

In the final week of January, the club announced that midfielder [[Siniša Ubiparipović]] and defender [[Andrew Boyens]] would not be returning to the club in 2011. Boyens signed with [[C.D. Chivas USA|Chivas USA]] in early February.

The club announced its preseason schedule would include training stints in [[Cancún]], [[Guadalajara]], [[Fort Lauderdale]], and [[Arizona]]. The list of preseason opponents included Mexico's [[C.D. Guadalajara|Chivas]], D2 side [[Miami FC (2006)|Miami FC]], plus [[Chicago Fire SC|Chicago Fire]], [[Sporting Kansas City]], and [[FC Dallas]] of MLS.<ref>[http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/01/new-york-announces-2011-preseason-travel-schedule New York announces 2011 preseason travel schedule {{pipe}} New York Red Bulls]</ref>

=== February ===
On February 1, MLS announced that [[Red Bull Arena (New Jersey)|Red Bull Arena]] would host the [[2011 MLS All-Star Game]] on July 27 when the MLS All-Stars would take on perennial [[Premier League]] power [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] for the second consecutive season.

On February 9, the preseason schedule kicked off when the Red Bulls defeated Mexican side [[Atlante F.C.]] 0–0 (4–3 penalties) in [[Cancún]]. Preseason continued with very little to report in roster changes or injuries. The club brought in a few trialists, most notably [[Teemu Tainio]], and late in the month released third-round SuperDraft pick Billy Cortes.

A major shake-up occurred on February 28 when Red Bulls fired longtime assistant coaches [[Richie Williams]] and [[Des McAleenan]].<ref>[http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=4160115 Red Bulls Release Williams and McAleenan from Coaching Duties - OurSports Central - Independent and Minor League Sports News]</ref> Williams was a popular figure among club supporters and guided the club as caretaker manager in two different seasons. His MLS experience had been credited with helping Sporting Director [[Erik Solér]] and Head Coach [[Hans Backe]] adjust to the peculiarities of the league, such as the [[MLS SuperDraft]]. Williams had played the 2001 and 2003 seasons for the club before returning as assistant coach in 2006. McAleenan had been goalkeeping coach since 2002, a remarkable run given the ownership change and constant turnover around him in the coaching and front office ranks.

=== March ===
The club met the March 1 official MLS roster compliance of 30 players by waiving two second-year players, forward [[Conor Chinn]] and midfielder [[Irving Garcia (soccer, born 1988)|Irving Garcia]]. While neither made an impact during the [[2010 New York Red Bulls season|2010 regular season]], each performed well as part of the "Baby Bulls" squad in the [[2010 U.S. Open Cup]].

A few injuries did hit the squad as preseason came to an end. Strikers [[Luke Rodgers]] and [[Juan Agudelo]] battled nagging injuries which limited their participation in exhibition matches. The club announced on March 8 that defender [[Chris Albright]] had undergone knee surgery and would miss 4–6 weeks.<ref>[http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/03/red-bulls-defender-chris-albright-undergoes-successful-knee-surgery Red Bulls defender Chris Albright undergoes successful knee surgery {{pipe}} New York Red Bulls]</ref> On March 9, Red Bulls announced the signings of two trialists, midfielder/defender [[Teemu Tainio]] and defender [[Stephen Keel]]. Tainio was penciled in for a starting role while Keel was signed to provide defensive depth from the bench.

The club released [[Giorgi Chirgadze]], its first ever homegrown player signing, on March 15. Though Chirgadze signed with the club in 2009 he never did appear in a league match with Red Bulls.

The [[2011 Major League Soccer season]] officially kicked off for Red Bulls when the club hosted [[Seattle Sounders FC]] on March 19. New York dominated possession 63%-37% and out-shot Seattle 13-8 en route to a 1-0 victory. The lone goal was scored in the 70th minute by [[Juan Agudelo]] off a long ball by MLS debutante [[Teemu Tainio]].

Two days later the club announced it had waived forward [[Salou Ibrahim]] which was a bit surprising given New York's thin ranks at forward. Ibrahim's release left only four forwards on the roster: Juan Agudelo, Thierry Henry, Luke Rodgers, and Corey Hertzog. Salou spent the 2010 season with Red Bulls, scoring 3 goals in 19 league games (8 starts).

Red Bulls signed second-round [[2011 MLS SuperDraft|SuperDraft]] choice [[Tyler Lassiter]] on March 23. The rookie defender earned much praise from the club in pre-season, with coach Hans Backe stating, "The way he started this preseason, he looks better in February than [[Tim Ream]] did when he arrived."<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/red_bulls_aim_for_shield_first_then_lc1DUoL1g4xwesneyZl1qK | work=New York Post | first=Brian | last=Lewis | title=Red Bulls aim for Shield first, then Cup | date=February 13, 2011 | access-date=February 14, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110219011422/http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/red_bulls_aim_for_shield_first_then_lc1DUoL1g4xwesneyZl1qK | archive-date=February 19, 2011 | url-status=dead | df=mdy-all }}</ref> Ream went on to be an MLS Rookie of the Year finalist. The club also signed [[Alex Horwath]] as the third-string goalkeeper on March 25. Horwath was immediately placed into action on March 26 at [[Columbus Crew]] due to an injury to starting goalkeeper [[Greg Sutton (soccer)|Greg Sutton]] and the international call-up of backup keeper [[Bouna Coundoul]]. Horwath and a lineup sprinkled with reserves earned a point with a 0-0 draw. Injuries kept Sutton and [[Thierry Henry]] from traveling with the club, while international duty removed Coundoul, Juan Agudelo, Tim Ream, [[Dane Richards]], and [[Rafael Marquez]] from the Red Bulls lineup. In addition to Horwath, forward [[Luke Rodgers]] made his [[Major League Soccer]] debut, backups [[Carlos Mendes]] and [[Stephen Keel]] started in central defense, and backup [[Danleigh Borman]] started in midfield. Rookie [[Corey Hertzog]] made his MLS debut as a late substitute.

Several Red Bulls players enjoyed productive spells with their national sides during the late March international window. Forward [[Juan Agudelo]] came on as a second-half substitute and scored the tying goal for the [[United States men's national soccer team|United States]] in its 1-1 draw with [[Argentina national football team|Argentina]] on March 26. Three days later, Agudelo and defender [[Tim Ream]] went the full 90 for the U.S. in its 1-0 loss to [[Paraguay national football team|Paraguay]].<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/03/red-bulls-international-duty-roundup| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120616071402/http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/03/red-bulls-international-duty-roundup| archive-date = June 16, 2012| title = Red Bulls on International Duty Roundup {{!}} New York Red Bulls}}</ref> Midfielder [[Dane Richards]] scored two goals for [[Jamaica national football team|Jamaica]] in a 3-2 victory over [[El Salvador national football team|El Salvador]] on March 29 while defender [[Rafael Marquez]] earned his 100th cap for [[Mexico national football team|Mexico]] when he captained El Tri to a victory over Paraguay on March 26.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/03/rbnys-m%C3%A1rquez-returns-el-tri-lineup-100th-cap| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120616071443/http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/03/rbnys-m%C3%A1rquez-returns-el-tri-lineup-100th-cap| archive-date = June 16, 2012| title = RBNY's Márquez returns to El Tri lineup for 100th cap {{!}} New York Red Bulls}}</ref>

''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 1 victory, 1 draw, 0 losses; 4 points, 7th overall through 2 matches

=== April ===
The month started off with a blockbuster trade to acquire the #10 that Red Bull fans have long wanted. On April 1, the club pulled the trigger and sent second-year midfielder [[Tony Tchani]], defender [[Danleigh Borman]], and a first-round pick in the [[2012 MLS SuperDraft]] to [[Toronto FC]] in exchange for midfielder [[Dwayne De Rosario]]. The deal provided New York with its most dangerous midfield playmaker since [[Amado Guevara]] left the squad in 2006. The trade of De Rosario by his hometown side was predicated on his demand for a new contract. The money issue was solved by Red Bulls with De Rosario's agent stating, "We have a very satisfactory agreement with NY and Dwayne can't wait to get on the field for them.''<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/rbny_dero_agree_on_money_fT039WPxWXcPpJuCdfdzZI | work=New York Post | first=Brian | last=Lewis | title=RBNY, DeRo agree on money | date=April 2, 2011 | access-date=April 2, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121022154647/http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/rbny_dero_agree_on_money_fT039WPxWXcPpJuCdfdzZI | archive-date=October 22, 2012 | url-status=dead | df=mdy-all }}</ref> Press reports also stated that Toronto would pay "a significant amount" of De Rosario's salary for 2011 and that De Rosario possesses a [[Permanent residence (United States)|U.S. green card]] so he would not occupy an international roster slot for New York.

De Rosario debuted for New York as a second-half substitute versus Houston on April 2. His assist to Dane Richards proved the lone New York goal in a 1-1 draw. One week later, Red Bulls fell at Philadelphia Union by a 1-0 score, the lone goal a result of a horrible gaffe by defender Tim Ream.

Red Bulls then dominated the next two matches, winning by scorelines of 3-0 over [[San Jose Earthquakes]] and 4-0 at [[D.C. United]]. Luke Rodgers was named MLS Player of the Week for his 2-goal, 1 assist performance against San Jose. The thrashing of rivals D.C. United was especially sweet for Red Bull fans, marking New York's first 4-goal margin of victory on the road since 1996 and the largest ever margin of victory against DC. New York finished the month with a 1-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City with Rodgers again supplying the goal, giving him 3 goals in 3 matches. Likewise, strike partner [[Thierry Henry]] closed the month with a tally of 4 goals in 4 matches.

The club signed [[2011 MLS Supplemental Draft|Supplemental Draft]] pick [[Teddy Schneider]] on April 12 to provide defensive cover. Two days later Red Bulls added Todd Hoffard as goalkeeping coach.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/04/red-bulls-name-todd-hoffard-goalkeeper-coach| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110417190149/http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/04/red-bulls-name-todd-hoffard-goalkeeper-coach| archive-date = April 17, 2011| title = Red Bulls name Todd Hoffard goalkeeper coach {{!}} New York Red Bulls}}</ref> Sporting Director Erik Solér stated, "Todd has a great deal of experience in American soccer and will be a valuable asset to our coaching squad."

Red Bulls also announced on April 28 that the club would go to London in late July to participate in the [[Emirates Cup]], hosted by [[Premier League|English Premier League]] side [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]]. Red Bulls would become the first MLS club to participate in the tournament. It was widely viewed that the invitation came due to the storied past of New York Designated Player [[Thierry Henry]] with Arsenal. Opponents were announced as [[Paris Saint-Germain F.C.|Paris Saint-Germain]] and Arsenal.

''MLS Results for April'': 3 victories, 1 draw, 1 loss<br />
''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 4 victories, 2 draws, 1 loss; 14 points, 2nd overall through 7 matches

=== May ===
May 7, 2011, witnessed the most expensive match in MLS history as New York traveled to play at [[Los Angeles Galaxy]]. For the first time ever five designated players were on the field for a league match: Thierry Henry and Rafa Marquez for Red Bulls and [[Landon Donovan]], [[David Beckham]], and former Red Bull [[Juan Pablo Ángel]] for Los Angeles. The game did not disappoint. Henry's early goal was matched by a Donovan score just before half. Tim Ream made an outstanding goal-line clearance, winning MLS Save of the Week, to thwart a second Donovan scoring chance before the break. The match ended a 1-1 draw, a fair result for Red Bulls against a quality opponent.

From Los Angeles, the club traveled cross-continent to [[Montreal]] for a mid-week friendly versus [[Montreal Impact (1992–2011)|Montreal Impact]]. The timing of the match, which New York lost 1-0, left fans perplexed as Red Bulls had an upcoming match versus Chivas USA in just 4 days time. Sure enough, Red Bulls lost at home to Chivas USA in a driving rain by a 3-2 scoreline. Two Goats' goals came from set pieces, which quickly emerged as Red Bulls largest defensive failing for the rest of the season.

The remaining three matches of May all resulted in draws: at Houston 2-2, home to Colorado 2-2, and at Vancouver 1-1.

Near month's end, five players were called to international duty for the [[2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup]]: Juan Agudelo and Tim Ream for the United States, Rafa Marquez for Mexico, Dane Richards for Jamaica, and Dwayne De Rosario for Canada. New York faced the prospect of losing the services of these 5 players for the entire month of June.
 
''MLS Results for May'': 0 victories, 4 draws, 1 loss<br />
''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 4 victories, 6 draws, 2 losses; 18 points, 5th overall through 12 matches

=== June ===
The loss of the regulars was keenly felt during a 1-1 draw at Columbus on June 4. A makeshift squad including Mehdi Ballouchy, Stephen Keel, Carlos Mendes, Austin da Luz, and substitute Matt Kassel conceded a 92nd-minute goal to drop 2 points. This match exposed the lack of depth on the squad, a shortcoming exacerbated by the reluctance of Hans Backe to give his younger players any meaningful minutes. The lack of depth, the unwillingness to use the bench, and consistently poor set piece defending became the defining points of the 2011 Red Bulls.

On June 10, Red Bulls saw their first victory in over a month when they defeated [[New England Revolution|New England]] 2–1 at [[Red Bull Arena (New Jersey)|Red Bull Arena]]. GK Greg Sutton played hero as he saved a [[Penalty kick (association football)|penalty]] in the 33rd minute.

Off the field, the club announced on June 10 that Chris Heck, a former [[National Basketball Association]] executive, would take over business operations from Erik Stover, who had overseen the construction of Red Bull Arena.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/06/longtime-nba-executive-chris-heck-named-new-president-business-operations| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110613074841/http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/06/longtime-nba-executive-chris-heck-named-new-president-business-operations| archive-date = June 13, 2011| title = Longtime NBA executive Chris Heck named new President, Business Operations {{!}} New York Red Bulls}}</ref> As the season progressed, Heck expanded marketing and promotions geared more toward casual fans and families, including the use of Groupon.

The club signed rookie defender [[Mike Jones (soccer)|Mike Jones]] on June 12. Jones was released earlier in the season by [[Sporting Kansas City]].

On June 19, Red Bulls made a fighting comeback against [[Portland Timbers]] to draw 3–3. After being down 3–1 and with less than 20 minutes to play, Henry started the comeback with a goal in the 73rd minute and De Rosario sealed the draw with a penalty goal in extra time by converting the spot kick in the 96th minute.

From Portland, Red Bulls traveled to [[Seattle Sounders FC]] and left with a tough 4–2 loss in front of a crowd of over 46,000. Seattle forward [[Roger Levesque]] came off the bench to score two goals within 10 minutes to assure his side's victory. GK Greg Sutton this time played goat, conceding one goal while arguing with the referee and another after being stripped of possession under little pressure. Also, New York played without Henry after the captain was controversially red carded late in the Portland match.

The road warrior segment of the schedule continued with a June 26 match at [[Chicago Fire Soccer Club|Chicago Fire]]. The match ended in a 1–1 draw with [[Joel Lindpere]] scoring the Red Bulls goal.

Internationally, the Gold Cup concluded with Rafa Marquez's Mexico squad beating Tim Ream and Juan Agudelo's United States side in the final on June 25.

On June 28, the first ''New York Derby'' was contested when Red Bulls faced [[F.C. New York]] in the third round of the [[2011 U.S. Open Cup]]. The match ended with a 2–1 Red Bulls victory at Red Bull Arena. Rookies [[Corey Hertzog]] and [[John Rooney (footballer)|John Rooney]] were the Red Bull goal scorers.

The shock of the month - if not the season - was provided on June 27 when the club announced it traded Dwayne De Rosario to rivals D.C. United for midfielder [[Dax McCarty]]. Red Bulls General Manager and Sporting Director Erik Soler said "Dax is an exciting young player who will immediately add his dynamic style of play to our midfield," and "he is an excellent two-way player who will contribute both to our defense and to our attack for seasons to come."<ref>{{cite news|title=Dax moves to New York|publisher=NYRedBulls.com|date=June 27, 2011}}</ref> The trading of perennial All Star De Rosario after only three months with New York stunned fans and media alike.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/06/27/red-bulls-deal-de-rosario-dc-mccarty|title=Red Bulls deal De Rosario to DC for McCarty in stunner|publisher=MLSSoccer.com|date=June 27, 2011|accessdate=November 24, 2011|archive-date=October 11, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121011172506/http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/06/27/red-bulls-deal-de-rosario-dc-mccarty|url-status=dead}}</ref> That the club received only McCarty, who was left exposed in the [[2010 MLS Expansion Draft]] just months earlier and had since fallen out of favor with his new D.C. club, was difficult to understand as captured in this actual column title from a Washington Post article: ''D.C.

''MLS Results for June'': 1 victory, 3 draws, 1 loss<br />
''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 5 victories, 9 draws, 3 losses; 24 points, 6th overall through 17 matches

=== July ===
Red Bulls opened July in similar fashion as June, with a 2-2 draw against [[San Jose Earthquakes]] at [[Stanford Stadium]]. Joel Lindpere saved the point for New York with his first brace of the season. He earned MLS Player of the Week for his performance.

On July 6, the team emphatically beat Toronto 5–0 with goals from Henry, Rodgers, Lindpere and a brace by Agudelo. The win was the club's biggest of the season and gave hope heading into the July 9 home match against D.C. United and De Rosario. The hope was misplaced, as a De Rosario goal gave D.C. a 1–0 victory at Red Bull Arena. This match would also prove to be the last started by Luke Rodgers for two months as the striker battled [[plantar fasciitis]].

The league announced on July 10 that forward Thierry Henry and defenders Rafa Marquez and Tim Ream were selected to the [[2011 MLS All-Star Game]] to be held at Red Bull Arena on July 27. Later in the month MLS Commissioner [[Don Garber]] announced that Juan Agudelo had been added to the MLS All-Star Game roster and that Joel Lindpere had been added as an inactive participant.

Another season low point was reached on July 12 when Red Bulls were eliminated from the U.S. Open Cup by a 4–0 thrashing at [[Chicago Fire Soccer Club|Chicago Fire]] in a quarterfinal match-up. Despite the fact that New York is the only original MLS club to never win a major trophy, team management decided that the U.S. Open Cup was not a priority and sent a squad lacking any regular starters to Chicago.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/chicago_routs_red_bull_reserves_z7Suju3zGtfAxxkPIEw8VJ | archive-url=https://archive.today/20120906101913/http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/chicago_routs_red_bull_reserves_z7Suju3zGtfAxxkPIEw8VJ | url-status=dead | archive-date=September 6, 2012 | work=New York Post | first=Brian | last=Lewis | title=Fire rout Red Bulls reserves in U.S. Open Cup quarterfinal | date=July 13, 2011 }}</ref> Making matters worse, neither Coach Backe nor top assistant Jan Halvor Halvorsen traveled to Chicago. Instead, first-year assistant coach [[Mike Petke]] and injured player [[Carl Robinson]] were assigned to coach the squad of reserves against the Chicago starters.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.metrofanatic.com/story.jsp?ID=5730|title=Backups torched out of Open Cup by Fire, 4:0 - MetroStars / Red Bull New York - Major League Soccer}}</ref> The ambivalence toward the Open Cup quarterfinal match infuriated Supporters Groups.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.metrofanatic.com/story.jsp?ID=5731|title=Disgrace - MetroStars / Red Bull New York - Major League Soccer}}</ref>

The following day, Red Bulls announced the signing of veteran [[German national football team|German]] goalkeeper [[Frank Rost]] from [[Fußball-Bundesliga|Bundesliga]] club [[Hamburger SV]]. General Manager Erik Soler stated "Frank is a very experienced goalkeeper who will provide a strong presence in-between the posts for our club during our quest for a MLS title," and "we are thrilled that he has decided to join us in the middle of our campaign and look forward to his contributions for the remainder of the season."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/07/red-bulls-sign-goalkeeper-frank-rost|title=Rost moves to New York|publisher=NYRedBulls.com|date=July 13, 2011|accessdate=July 13, 2011}}</ref> Rost became the club's third Designated Player.

The club traveled west to face [[C.D. Chivas USA|Chivas USA]] on July 16 and came away with yet another draw, this one scoreless, in Rost's debut.

Off the field that same day, the club announced that goalkeeper [[Greg Sutton (soccer)|Greg Sutton]], made redundant with the arrival of Frank Rost, had been loaned to [[North American Soccer League (2011)|North American Soccer League]] side [[Montreal Impact (1992–2011)|Montreal Impact]] for the remainder of the season. This marked a homecoming of sorts for Sutton, a native Canadian who spent six years with Montreal earlier in his career. The club also announced that it had acquired an international roster slot from D.C. United for future considerations. Two days later, the future considerations were confirmed as second-year midfielder [[Austin da Luz]]. Supporters were again confused by the move, this time for trading an inexpensive, capable, domestic player to rivals D.C. for an international slot that reverts to D.C. at season's end.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.onceametro.com/2011/7/18/2281027/new-york-red-bulls-austin-da-luz-trade-dc-united-loan-greg-sutton-montreal|title = New York Red Bulls Trade Austin da Luz to DC United, Loan Greg Sutton to Montreal|date = July 18, 2011}}</ref>

Coach Backe did not help his standing with the fanbase by publicly conceding his preseason goal of winning the Supporters Shield. Backe told the ''New York Post'' on July 18: "...even if I wanted to win the Shield, but that is gone."<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/injury_bulls_backe_dismisses_nicolas_rBDtCSgPa0YatRYxToi71K | work=New York Post | first=Brian | last=Lewis | title=Red Bull notes: Backe dismisses Nicolas Anelka link, concedes Shield, updates injuries&#160 | date=July 18, 2011 | access-date=November 24, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110727011153/http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/soccerblog/injury_bulls_backe_dismisses_nicolas_rBDtCSgPa0YatRYxToi71K | archive-date=July 27, 2011 | url-status=dead | df=dmy-all }}</ref>

The downward spiral continued with a 4-1 loss at Colorado on July 20. Three days later, Red Bulls did rescue a point from FC Dallas in a 2-2 home draw. Playing in stifling heat, Thierry Henry scored a late equalizer after Dane Richards had been sent off for his caution. That concluded league play for the month, with Red Bulls having now won 2 league matches in 3 months and having slipped to 9th place overall.

The All-Star game was held at Red Bull Arena on July 27. Coach Backe managed the MLS squad to a 4–0 defeat at the hands of English [[Premier League]] champions [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]].

On July 31, Red Bulls did manage to win a (meaningless) trophy: the [[Emirates Cup#2011|2011 Emirates Cup]]. After defeating [[Paris Saint-Germain F.C.|Paris Saint-Germain]] of French [[Ligue 1]] on July 30 by a 1–0 scoreline,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/07/recap-lindpere-goal-sees-new-york-past-psg|title=Red Bulls take Emirates Cup|publisher=NYRedBulls.com|date=July 31, 2011|accessdate=July 31, 2011}}</ref> Red Bulls then drew 1–1 against hosts, [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] of the English [[Premier League]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/07/emirates-cup-title-ends-perfect-weekend-henry|title=Red Bulls take Emirates Cup|publisher=NYRedBulls.com|date=July 31, 2011|accessdate=July 31, 2011}}</ref> Returning hero Thierry Henry was warmly received by Arsenal fans.

''MLS Results for July'': 1 victory, 3 draws, 2 losses<br />
''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 6 victories, 12 draws, 5 losses; 30 points, 9th overall through 23 matches

=== August ===
The next league match was August 6 at [[Real Salt Lake]]. Red Bulls showed the effects of the long journey from England, losing badly 3–0. The loss dropped New York back to a dead even won-lost record. To make matters worse, new goalkeeper Frank Rost was removed at halftime due to an injury he suffered while sitting on the airplane on the flight from London to America.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/08/05/rbny-keeper-rost-expects-play-real-salt-lake| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150918071546/http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/08/05/rbny-keeper-rost-expects-play-real-salt-lake| archive-date = September 18, 2015| title = RBNY 'keeper Rost expects to play at Real Salt Lake {{!}} MLSsoccer.com}}</ref>

Draws by a 2–2 scoreline followed against Chicago on August 13 and New England on August 20, Dane Richards netting both goals in the latter game. The Chicago game featured emergency goalkeeper [[Chris Konopka]] as starter due to Rost's injury, the loan of Greg Sutton, an international call-up for [[Bouna Coundoul]], and an apparent lack of faith by Coach Backe in third-string keeper [[Alex Horwath]]. It proved to be Konopka's only appearance of the season.

The marquee match of the month, the visit by first place Los Angeles Galaxy on August 28, was postponed until October 4 due to [[Hurricane Irene (2011)|Hurricane Irene]].

During August, Red Bulls traded a [[2013 MLS SuperDraft]] pick to Sporting Kansas City for midfielder [[Stéphane Auvray]] and loaned rookie defender [[Tyler Lassiter]] to [[North American Soccer League (2011)|North American Soccer League]] side [[Carolina RailHawks FC|Carolina RailHawks]]. The club also continued its shakeup of staff members, relieving athletic trainer Rick Guter of his duties following 5 years of service. A replacement was not named.

The consistent lack of victories resulted in a continued fall in the standings. At month's end, Red Bulls had fallen to 11th place through 26 rounds. For the first time all season the club was outside the playoff picture.

''MLS Results for August'': 0 victories, 2 draws, 1 loss<br />
''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 6 victories, 14 draws, 6 losses; 32 points, 11th overall through 26 matches

=== September ===
With 8 matches to go and fighting for the playoffs, New York could ill afford to lose a starter but they did just that when [[Roy Miller (footballer)|Roy Miller]] was injured while playing internationally for [[Costa Rica national football team|Costa Rica]] on September 6. Miller missed two weeks. The club did regain the services of Luke Rodgers after 2 months out of the starting lineup.

Red Bulls hosted last place Vancouver on September 10 and earned another draw, this time 1–1. One week later Rodgers scored the only goal in a surprising 1–0 victory at Dallas. The joy of a victory was short-lived as the club returned home on September 21 and fell flat versus Salt Lake, losing 3–1. All 3 Salt Lake goals were conceded in the first 21 minutes of play.

After the Salt Lake match, Designated Player Rafa Marquez, who had been singled out recently by fans for his indifferent performance and lack of hustle, gave a scathing interview in which he denigrated his teammates, Tim Ream specifically.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.empireofsoccer.com/?p=3618|title = Empire of Soccer}}</ref> Among Marquez's statements were: "I think I am playing at my maximum level, and doing everything I can. I don't have, unfortunately, four defenders on my level that can help me out."; "Tim is still a young player with a lot to learn. He still has quite a lot to learn, and well, he has committed errors that are very infantile and cost us goals."; and "I think that this is a team game, and unfortunately, there isn't an equal level between perhaps (Thierry Henry) and myself, and our teammates." Despite Marquez's initial claims that he was misquoted, the interview was videotaped and posted in its entirety at a fan website. Two days later the club suspended Marquez for one match.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/09/23/red-bulls-suspend-defender-m%C3%A1rquez-portland-game| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110924153307/http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/09/23/red-bulls-suspend-defender-m%C3%A1rquez-portland-game| archive-date = September 24, 2011| title = Red Bulls suspend defender Márquez for Portland game {{!}} MLSsoccer.com}}</ref>

Red Bulls won the match that Marquez missed, beating Portland 2–0 on September 24. This result meant that Marquez had not played in any of the four most recent Red Bulls victories or in any of the four most recent Red Bulls shutouts. The win moved the club back into playoff position, 9th overall.

''MLS Results for September'': 2 victories, 1 draw, 1 loss<br />
''MLS Results Season-to-Date'': 8 victories, 15 draws, 7 losses; 39 points, 9th overall through 30 matches

=== October ===
Marquez returned for the October 1 match at Toronto and his impact was felt. His early second-half giveaway and failure to hustle back defensively resulted in a Toronto goal. Only a sterling late game finish by Thierry Henry allowed Red Bulls to rescue a point through a 1–1 draw.

The rescheduled home match against Los Angeles was played on October 4. Red Bulls looked sharp and earned a 2–0 victory which placed them on the cusp of clinching a playoff spot. However, in the inconsistent manner exhibited by the club all season long, a flat New York squad next fell at Kansas City 2–0. Henry was issued a straight red card in the match, causing him to miss the final league match with the club needing a result to ensure a playoff spot.

Prior to the final match, General Manager Erik Soler told ''The New York Times'' that Coach Hans Backe would return for 2012. Soler also addressed the June trade of Dwayne De Rosario to D.C. United, deflecting blame by stating: "He didn't work out, he didn't score. He's a great player as long as he has the ball, and we already have those kinds of players here. Our problem is not scoring goals, our problem is defensive mistakes. He's not a guy who likes to play a complementary role. He didn't fit in. I'm happy for him. He's a great guy, but he wouldn't score 15 goals here. We know that Thierry Henry needs the ball, and on a smaller scale DeRo is the same. It's not our mistake. It just didn't work out."<ref>{{cite news| url=http://goal.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/10/18/red-bulls-soler-looks-back-and-peeks-ahead/ | work=The New York Times | first=Jack | last=Bell | title=Red Bulls' Soler Looks Back and Peeks Ahead | date=October 18, 2011}}</ref>

The last league match was home to Philadelphia on October 20. An early Dane Richards goal proved enough for a 1–0 victory that clinched the 10th and final playoff spot for Red Bulls.

''MLS Results for October'': 2 victories, 1 draw, 1 loss<br />
''MLS Results Regular Season (Final)'': 10 victories, 16 draws, 8 losses; 44 points, 10th overall

New York opened the postseason with a one-game Wild Card round playoff at Dallas. Goals by Joel Lindpere and Thierry Henry led Red Bulls to a surprising 2–0 win.

The victory over Dallas earned New York a two-game series with Supporters Shield winners Los Angeles Galaxy. The first match was played October 30 at Red Bull Arena. Former Red Bull [[Mike Magee (soccer)|Mike Magee]] scored the game's lone goal to win the match for Galaxy. After the match, a skirmish erupted when Marquez threw the ball at Galaxy captain Landon Donovan, hitting the American international in the foot. Nearby Galaxy player [[Adam Cristman]] took offense and confronted Marquez, who responded by punching (and missing) wildly and seemingly attempting to headbutt Cristman. Other players joined the fray, with Los Angeles midfielder [[Vitor Gomes Pereira Junior|Juninho]] landing an elbow to the face of unsuspecting Red Bulls defender [[Stephen Keel]]. Marquez inexplicably grabbed his face and flopped to the ground when other players approached, though no player was near enough to make contact with him. He and Juninho were both shown red cards for their actions, causing them to miss the return leg in Los Angeles. Two days later, the league suspended Marquez an additional two matches for: "attempting to head butt Adam Cristman, attempting to punch Adam Cristman; striking Cristman, and simulating that he had been struck in the face."<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/11/03/mls-suspends-marquez-two-additional-games-ny-la-fray| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20111105204940/http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011/11/03/mls-suspends-marquez-two-additional-games-ny-la-fray| archive-date = November 5, 2011| title = MLS suspends Márquez two added games for NY-LA fray {{!}} MLSsoccer.com}}</ref> The extra suspension ended Marquez's 2011 season.

''MLS Playoff Results'': Wild Card victory over [[FC Dallas]]; trailing 1–0 in aggregate to [[Los Angeles Galaxy]]

=== November ===
Red Bulls faced a daunting task needing to win in Los Angeles, something no visiting club had managed all season. In the return leg on November 3, an early Luke Rodgers goal tied the series and gave Red Bulls hope. New York carried play until midfielder [[Teemu Tainio]] was forced out with injury at 16 minutes. From there, the match turned toward Los Angeles with Galaxy finally regaining the aggregate lead on a Mike Magee goal minutes before halftime. A second-half goal by Landon Donovan cemented the series victory for Los Angeles and ended another disappointing season for New York Red Bulls.

On November 9 the club announced team awards for 2011: Most Valuable Player - [[Thierry Henry]]; Newcomer of the Year - [[Luke Rodgers]]; Defender of the Year - [[Jan Gunnar Solli]]; Humanitarian of the Year - [[Stephen Keel]].<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/11/2011-red-bulls-team-awards| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20111112035419/http://www.newyorkredbulls.com/news/2011/11/2011-red-bulls-team-awards| archive-date = November 12, 2011| title = 2011 Red Bulls Team Awards {{!}} New York Red Bulls}}</ref>

To add insult to injury, [[Dwayne De Rosario]], discarded after less than three months with New York, was named 2011 Most Valuable Player of Major League Soccer.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.mlssoccer.com/awards/2011/mvp| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20111120174458/http://www.mlssoccer.com/awards/2011/mvp| archive-date = November 20, 2011| title = D.C.

Rafa Marquez's suspension will carry over to the first two matches of 2012.

== Miscellany ==

=== Allocation ranking ===
New York did not use its spot in the [[2011 Major League Soccer season#Allocation ranking|MLS Allocation Ranking]] during the 2011 season. The allocation ranking is the mechanism used to determine which MLS club has first priority to acquire a [[United States men's national soccer team|U.S. National Team]] player who signs with MLS after playing abroad, or a former MLS player who returns to the league after having gone to a club abroad for a transfer fee. A ranking can be traded, provided that part of the compensation received in return is another club's ranking.<ref name="mlssoccer.com">[http://www.mlssoccer.com/2011-mls-roster-rules 2011 MLS Roster Rules {{pipe}} Major League Soccer] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110430101816/http://www.mlssoccer.com/2011-mls-roster-rules |date=April 30, 2011 }}</ref>

=== International roster spots ===
It is believed that New York has 12 international roster spots. Each club in Major League Soccer is allocated 8 international roster spots, which can be traded. New York acquired its first additional spot from [[San Jose Earthquakes]] on March 2, 2009. Press reports did not indicate if or when this roster spot was to revert to San Jose.<ref>[http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3784522 Red Bulls Acquire Allocation Money, International Slot - OurSports Central - Independent and Minor League Sports News]</ref> New York acquired a second additional spot from [[Houston Dynamo]] on March 17, 2009.<ref>[http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3790958 Red Bull New York Signs Goalkeeper Alec Dufty - OurSports Central - Independent and Minor League Sports News]</ref> It is not known if or when this roster spot is to revert to Houston. The club also acquired a spot from [[Colorado Rapids]] on September 14, 2010, in the [[Macoumba Kandji]] trade. The trade of this spot was not included in the press release and it is not known when this spot reverts to Colorado.<ref>[http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=4090988 Rapids Acquire Macoumba Kandji in Trade with New York - OurSports Central - Independent and Minor League Sports News]</ref> The club acquired a fourth additional international spot from [[D.C. United]] on July 16, 2011. This spot will return to D.C. after the 2011 season.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.dcunited.com/press-release/2011/07/dc-united-makes-trade-with-red-bulls |title=D.C. United makes trade with Red Bulls &#124; D.C. United |access-date=July 16, 2011 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120724101103/http://www.dcunited.com/press-release/2011/07/dc-united-makes-trade-with-red-bulls |archive-date=July 24, 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

There is no limit on the number of international slots on each club's roster. The remaining roster slots must belong to domestic players. For clubs based in the United States, a domestic player is either a U.S. citizen, a permanent resident (green card holder) or the holder of other special status (e.g., refugee or asylum status).<ref name="mlssoccer.com"/>

=== Future draft pick trades ===
Future picks acquired: None.<br />
Future picks traded: [[2012 MLS SuperDraft|2012 SuperDraft Round 1]] pick traded to [[Toronto FC]]; [[2012 MLS Supplemental Draft|2012 Supplemental Draft Round 1]] pick traded to [[Houston Dynamo]]; [[2013 MLS SuperDraft|2013 SuperDraft Round 2]] pick traded to [[Sporting Kansas City]].
