Just like the Fire, I am SO back.
Hope to be as active again as they are this past week 👀🔥
BREAKING: The Chicago Fire are finalizing a deal to sign USMNT midfielder Kellyn Acosta, sources tell The Athletic. @BonaguraESPN 1st reported.
Acosta, 28, spent recent few years with LAFC, making back to back MLS Cups. theathletic.com/5258094/2024…

A Quality Starting 8, (& former USMNT player) is exactly the type of move that shifts you from fringe playoffs, to serious contender.
Alongside a bulldog like Fede Navarro and behind a creative outlet like Guti or Shaqiri, Acosta is primed to make an immediate impact. 💥 #CF97

Back after a little hiatus, but what a HUGE move for #cf97
Leaves a gaping hole in the squad right at the beginning of preseason, but this is a move you have to make.
Let’s see how they choose to fill it 👀💰
Aston Villa can confirm that an agreement has been reached with Chicago Fire for the permanent transfer of 19-year-old striker, Jhon Durán.

Seeing Japan beat Germany this morning in those glorious kits inspired me.
... So I started a SubStack and talked about the DRIPPIEST💦WC jerseys.
But first let's take a look at some of the kit's that just missed out on the list:

🏴 AWAY:
Chalk another one up for the simple but appealing club ✅
A pretty simple design, but the accents along with the badge make for a stylish and memorable kit.
Maybe it's the Christmas fever, but I have a soft spot for a good Red & Green color combo 🎄🎅

Hoping some minutes in the G League can help prepare Dalen for any sudden opportunities these next few months !!
Looking forward to seeing how he plays as an alpha in an offense .

Some interesting names here 👀
Chris Clemons has been in and out of the NBA and G-League with the Rockets and is a high-scoring guard 🔥
Chicago Natives JFL, Coupet, and Matthews representing Whitney Young, Simeon, and St. Rita respectively! 🏙

Really disappointed to see the Fire let Andre go.
Tough seeing a Chicago native & homegrown shown the door, especially with the current state of the LB position.
I thought he played well enough in his appearances this last season.
Reinforcements coming? #cf97
