Adios Hugo! Chicago Fire Foolishly Transfer Star Striker to Liga MX
from Feed the Fire: A Chicago Fire Podcast · host Bleav + Glass House Soccer
Hey, soccer fans! It's been a few days, but the emotions of losing Hugo Cuypers to CF Monterrey of Liga MX are still very strong. Tune in as Nick goes through his anger, bargaining, and acceptance, as he tries to make sense of why the Chicago Fire would transfer their All-Star striker and MLS Golden Boot leader. Was there ever a world where both Cuypers and Polish international superstar Robert Lewandowski could have co-existed, or was there simply no way a player of Cuypers' talent could play second-fiddle - even to an all-time great. Nick looks at the emotional impact, the roster implications, and the financial aspects of the Men in Red's recent moves, and gives his not-too-optimistic take on the rest of the season.
