After winning six straight matches across MLS play and Phase 1 of Leagues Cup, the Fire are winless in seven including four straight draws followed by losses to New England and Nashville. With the upcoming schedule not getting any easier, is it time to panic? Is this just the team regressing to the mean and we got too excited with earlier good results? Is there any progress being made on organizing the team around Robert Lewandowski?
On the bright side, Anzor Mekvabishvili has arrived in Chicago and Andreas Hanche-Olsen shouldn’t be far behind. Less ideal is that Mekvabishvili and Lewandowski along with Chris Brady, Robin Lod and Puso Dithejane will all be unavailable the next two matches while on international duty.
Four points from a top-4 place in the Eastern Conference and seven points above the playoff line… which way will the Fire go next?
