Chris Brady

Chris Brady is a young goalkeeper who has developed entirely within MLS, spending his professional career at Chicago Fire after a brief stint with Forward Madison in the lower divisions. At 22 he is the least experienced of the USA's goalkeeping options, but his consistent club performances earned him international attention as a potential long-term successor to the established hierarchy. Athletic and composed for his age, Brady represents Pochettino's investment in a younger generation, though at this World Cup he is realistically competing for a backup role behind more established names.
