Not sure if it’s more on the player or the coaching/medical staff but if your number one GK is labeled as “questionable” on the injury report before a home playoff game….he should be playing. Otherwise just list him as “out” and be done with it #cf97

🚨 La ASF detectó que durante el gobierno de Cuauhtémoc Blanco en Morelos se observaron irregularidades por $7,514.4 millones de pesos, de los cuales solo se justificó o recuperó el 23.6%, es decir, se robó más de $5,700 millones de pesos. #Morenarco ejecentral.com.mx/nuestro-eje/in…

Sources: Chicago Fire finalizing deal to sign central midfielder Anton Salétros from AIK. Anel Avdić 1st. Deal would be for January. Salétros, 29, has made 229 apps for AIK.

New: The Chicago Fire has signed midfielder André Franco on permanent deal from Porto. Club agreed new transfer fee after ACL injury Club also complete deal to sign Sweden int'l midfielder Anton Salétros Gregg Berhalter on those deals + offseason plans nytimes.com/athletic/67864…

Despite the disappointing end to the season last weekend, time to look forward and at positives: this club took a big step in right direction for the 1st time in over a decade…lots of great pieces to build around, a style of play, and the city is starting to pay attention #cf97

I may not love the MLS playoff format but no denying the playoff atmosphere is at its best and has steadily gotten better year after year

Love the quick work of the Franco deal and the Salétros signing (who I think will be a really good pickup)…safe to say Kouame won’t be back next season and club will look for a buyer for Acosta #cf97

Spoke with Gregg Berhalter on the Chicago Fire's offseason plans. Club feels in a good spot. Looking to add four this winter. Could be a DP. Haven't decided yet. Berhalter: “We’ve had negotiations with some top players, we’re open to everything." nytimes.com/athletic/67864…

As we move into offseason, it feels good for a change to look at our roster at the end of a season and pick out more players worth keeping rather than wanting to clean house for the umpteenth time. Lots of great pieces to build around to take the next steps #cf97

-competing only with baseball for bulk of szn to competing with all 4 major sports (College and pro) 👎🏻 -4 months of warm weather games nationwide to maybe 2.5 months of warm weather games 👎🏻 -2 month break that kills all momentum in middle of the season 👎🏻 This ruined my day

Because I’m curious…given Guti’s development, interest from Liga MX clubs, our play style and personnel going into next season, etc., would you rather see the Fire keep him or sell him this offseason and what’s your reasoning? #cf97

I’m aligned with the majority of voters here…will I be upset if we keep Guti? Absolutely not. But 1) not sure he fits 5-back system which could be used in majority of games next season 2) think we can find better 3) its a good time to sell, can probably get good 💰for him #cf97

No surprises here. Kouame already replaced/upgraded w/ Salétros. Radojevic brought in for Gasper. There will be back up striker options available domestically to replace Barlow. Interested to see if they look domestically for a 3rd GK or give Patrick Los 1st team contract #cf97

Biggest #cf97 roster needs/questions as things stand: -CB, backup striker, 3rd GK on the shopping list -Do they look to move Guti and Acosta? Have to think at least one of them won’t be back -will there be opportunities for Sam Williams, Glasgow and Reynolds next szn?

Intrigued by this signing. Not familiar with South African league but everyone over there seems to have a lot of praise for him and his potential…already capped w/ RSA and has captained Orl Pirates at age 20 Biggest hurdle will be adapting culturally/learning the language #cf97

Some interesting names around MLS who had options declined or are out of contract that could fit the Fire’s depth needs #cf97

Gianni Infantino is in my top 5 for least favorite people on planet earth
