Chicago Fire Notebook: Shaqiri still “day-to-day,” LA Galaxy’s Chicharito gets philosophical

The biggest question heading into Saturday’s showdown between the Chicago Fire and LA Galaxy has to be this: Will Xherdan Shaqiri’s massive left calf be healthy in time to play?

“We will see,” Shaqiri said in a media availability this week. “We are day-to-day, but there is a possibility to be on the pitch.”

After returning from international duty with Switzerland, Shaqiri came out of the April 2 matchup with Sporting Kansas City after just 19 minutes, and did not play in last weekend’s 1-0 loss to Orlando City.
