Fire to hire Yallop as head coach

The Chicago Fire parted ways with Frank Klopas on Monday, and wasted no time finding his replacement.

The Fire have hired former San Jose Earthquakes head coach Frank Yallop as the team’s new coach, Goal.com reported on Wednesday night.

Yallop takes over after leaving the Earthquakes in mid-season following a terrible first half. In 2012, he helped lead the Earthquakes to the MLS Supporters Shield, before losing to eventual champion Los Angeles Galaxy in Western Conference semifinals.

What do you think of this development? See Yallop being a good hire? Surprised he didn’t go to Vancouver?
