Chicago Fire's head coach, Gregg Berhalter, remains unfazed by the team's lackluster start in the 2025 MLS season, stating there is no pressure to perform immediately. After a draw against DC United and a loss to Columbus Crew, Berhalter noted positive aspects from both matches. He emphasized the team's calm focus despite upcoming challenges, including a series of away games. Key player Hugo Cuypers, although not fully fit, has already made an impact by scoring twice this season. The team aims for continued improvement as the season progresses, supported by strong fan engagement.
I wouldn't say pressure. We know what business we're in and we want to win every game, right? So when we're looking at how these two games unfolded... we remain calm, we remain focused.
He's not at 100% yet and... we know he missed all the preseason for us again. We're urging patience to keep getting him to where he needs to be, but it's certainly great when you're not 100%, and you're scoring two goals.
It's still really early in the season, there's a lot of progression yet to take place... my overall confidence, I feel like it's going to get better.
A rivalry fueled by the fans, for the fans.
