No question dumping a veteran goalie for an untested one less than a week before the first game created some controversy. Andrew Dykstra can end it by playing well in his first Major League Soccer game on Saturday against the New York Red Bulls.
It'll certainly be a trial under fire for Dykstra, and in the long-awaited MLS unveiling of the Red Bulls' much-needed new stadium to boot.
Though the Fire brass denies it, the dumping of proven veteran Jon Busch would seem to be salary-related and going with two untested goalkeepers is risky, to put it mildly. Starting Dykstra is one thing, but shouldn't a veteran netminder be on the roster, too, just in case?
What do you think?
