When Leandro Gonzalez Pirez departed Atlanta United last winter, there were always going to be incredibly big shoes to fill for whoever came next. Atlanta United’s front office landed on Fernando Meza, at the time a 29-year-old (now 30) fellow Argentine with experience across the western hemisphere from San Lorenzo in his home country, to Colo-Colo in Chile and Necaxa in Mexico before finally coming stateside.
Safe to say, things did not go the way anyone — from fans to the front office to Meza himself — would’ve hoped.
