At least we are making moves. A forward, a midfielder, and a defender. Nice that he originated within the Fire club and is native to Illinois. That's kinda cool.
Not any big signings that you would hope for from a city like Chicago but I'm interested to see the team we field next year. With the MLS playoffs expanding they are pretty much letting anyone in lol so who knows.

No BIG signing, because we are owned by a CHEAPASS!!!!!!!!
His definition of a BIG signing is players like Anangono (seven figure transfer fee player) even thou it was paid for with MLS's funny money (allocation money).
We will NEVER see that so called "Keane money" player that Dollar Menu said he is willing to sign (all you have to do is find him and I'll make out the check). It's been six transfer windows since he said that, I guess it's just "HARD" or just "NONSENSE".......
League needs to do something about this, either force him to start spending or just pull a Chivas USA and take over.....

On MLSSoccer.com reviews of 2014 teams, they list some offseason needs for the Fire:
"1. A Star Name: First and foremost, the Fire need a DP to really excite the Toyota Park faithful. After losing out on Jones, and with that money reportedly available to spend, it seems unlikely that the Fire will enter into the 2015 season without a marquee signing. They’ve already acquired Nigerian striker and DP Kennedy Igboananike, which is a great start, but after years of disappointment and envious glances at their DP-laden rivals, surely 2015 is the year the Fire bring another Blanco, Nowak or Stoichkov to Chicago."

Not going to happen as long we our owned by Andrew "Dollar Menu" Hauptman. We already signed our DP for the year, if you want to call him a DP.

Unlikely not to have a marquee signing... lmfao... maybe they'll convince Patrick Kane to sit in a box for a game.

Don't we need more help on our defense though? But, sure, why not.

We need help in the ownership department, but yes we need defenders.
This is just like a couple of years ago, all we were signing were defensive midfielders. I bet both or at least one of the them (Magee/Quincy) are being shopped.
