Dax McCarty Is The Answer To The Fire’s Left Back Problem

The Chicago Fire have a problem at left back. This isn’t a secret.

It’s been a problem since the day Brandon Vincent retired. It was probably an issue before that too, when Vincent played centerback a handful of times last year. Jorge Corrales has shown himself to be a liability on the left side in his 19 appearances for the Fire dating back to 2018. Raheem Edwards is still MIA and there have been no reports of when he will return to the line-up.

The hole at left back needs to be filled, and there is a player that has the skills to fill it.
