Pauno Needs to Snuff Out Mental Weakness

The past two seasons have shown Chicago Fire to be particularly vulnerable to late game collapses and this has been an indication of mental weakness. Whether it is a product of the players’ mental fortitude or poor strategy from the coaching staff, Pauno needs to make it priority number one to eradicate any mental weakness in the squad.

I sat at Toyota Park on Saturday afternoon in disbelief on several occasions. First, I watched the pregame festivities and wondered how this was the same venue that hosted a windy, snowy affair just two weeks prior. High 70’s and sun were a welcome sign for the Fire faithful as the team welcomed Montreal Impact to Bridgeview this weekend.
