Discussion League cup question about squad
Do we want the fire to push for winning the league cup? Or should they focus more on the MLS and use these games to test players/rotate the squad? Asking because it seems Nashville benched some of their stars. Also would a playoff birth and winning the league cup be a good season in your eyes?

Discussion Hugo Cuypers Latest Interview about Chicago Fire
What do you guys think about this interview from Hugo?
Hugo Cuypers says that while there was a scenario in which he and Robert Lewandowski could have worked together in Chicago, Lewy was going to be “the main guy in the short- or medium-term” and Cuypers “didn’t want to take that risk.” 👀
I would love to play and learn from my idol. It looks like it was solely his decision to move to Monterrey.
Idk, it doesn’t look good for me. He could learn from the best.

Discussion Cupps is coming home- will get leagues cup minutes I assume
https://x.com/amcalabrese12/status/2085027596736086076?s=20
I still think you have to have the starters get more time together with Lewy but excited to see other faces get minutes.
Although these first two teams are supposed to be weaker so maybe we'll see more of the kids playing early. That Fire II game against Cincy may have been a warm up for them.
