Though, it is a free transfer the Fire had to pay Seattle Sounders $50,ooo in GAM for the 31-year-olds discovery rights. Gaitan will be joining Aleksander Katai, Nemanja Nikolic, and Frankowski in the attack. Without a doubt the Fire have …

The MLS is back and oh boy was tonights match a dramatic one! Many of us didn’t know what to expect, and Nemanja Nikolic riding the bench may have surprised many (I’ll get to that later). Though the club didn’t make the defensive moves we would’ve liked for them to do Veljko Paunovic created a great lineup with the options …

Now, we all remember that three-year plan Nelson Rodríguez mentioned 2 years ago, but we haven’t seen anything change for the good only the worse. Now the club has been set back comparing the 2017 and 2018 seasons. But, one position the club has been struggling in the past 2 seasons is in goal. Sean Johnson was originally sold to Atlanta United …

Earlier this week it was reported that Johan Kappelhof is unlikely to re-sign with the Chicago Fire, as the 28-year-old is currently out of contract.

Now, Alan Gordon (37) hadn’t come in much of a surprise, and the fans were notified of it days before their last match. A true legend in MLS, but it was his time to retire.

The losing streak may have been broken as Chicago Fire drew at home 1-1 against Rivals Columbus Crew, but to many it was a loss. The match was fairly close but the Crew had made more out of the chances having 6/12 shots in target. Meanwhile the Fire has 3/11. Crew also held 53.9% possession, Fire held 46.1%. With both have …

Another disappointing loss for Chicago Fire.  While the regular season seems un-savable, the US Open Cup seemed yet again in the reach. Chicago Fire like last year we’re found once again in the Semifinals, how you may ask? Well no one knows.  They faced Philadelphia Union, they had faced them 2 times before this match and lost both. Chicago Fire …

Another tough loss on the road makes that their 6th straight season game loss. The men in red are on a streak right now, and it’s not one they want to be on. The last time Chicago Fire won was June 30th, against New York City FC.  Chicago played Real Salt Lake without three key players. Benching Katai, Bastian Schweinsteiger, …
