The almost yearly ritual of playing for next season is upon us. The Chicago Fire are basically out of the playoff race, this time with three games left. That’s fewer than last season (5 games) so that’s some progress, but not really enough. The team missed an opportunity to take advantage of a generational goalkeeping talent and seemingly swung and missed on all but one transfer throughout the season.
So now, it’s all about next season. Ezra and co. can now start the evaluation process for next season. They can start implementing big structural changes should they desire.
