Relatively slow news week, but there are some things to talk about, like Jameese Joseph getting called up to the USWNT Futures Camp!

What do we think about the new ownership’s first year? Who are our favorite NWSL players who never payed for the Red Stars? Find out on this week’s episode!

Goodbyes are not easy, not just in everyday life but in sports. Whether they’re your favorite player on the pitch or one who rides the bench but you love who they are as a person, players leaving your favorite team isn’t fun. We have to talk about it though, and Chicago has about 9 or 10 players not returning for 2025.
Chicago also added another goalkeeper, so at least we have new players to get to know on the club!
And don’t worry, LT and Liz didn’t forget that this week was meant for the 2024 defensive line breakdown. It’s all in there, so come join us on this episode of Red Stars Report!

The Chicago Red Stars have played their final match at SeatGeek Stadium before they become Chicago Stars FC. Unfortunately, the team could not overcome their ongoing issues of playing at home and fell 3-1 to Kansas City Current.
It was a tale of two halves, and LT and Liz will break down the differences, the tactical and personnel changes made after going down 3-0, and how that second half is important for this Friday’s playoff match.
Speaking of playoffs, Friday November 8th at 7pm CT, the Chicago Red Stars play Shield winners Orlando Pride in the quarterfinals of the NWSL playoffs! LT and Liz have a preview of the match!

All three have differing perspectives and thoughts on the new name, the new logo, and how this rebrand was executed.
