The Chicago Fire introduced new head coach Veljko Paunovic Thursday morning.
The new leader on the pitch - known simply as "Pauno" - talked about his belief in people and explained his vision for the franchise:
Pauno also sent a message directly to the Fire fanbase:
"We need you," he said. "We need you to come to the stadium. We need your support. We need you to root for us. We need your chants. We need your flags. We need your passion. We need your love.
"Let's create together a winning environment where the players will feel passionate to give their best in every game, no matter the circumstances. We want to deliver you a winning team that always gives its best on and off the field and never gives up. We want to deliver you a team that will inspire and one that you will love and enjoy even more."
Pauno then left the fans with one last statement:
"And my final message is: Let's start the Fire together."
Chicago Fire
Nailed it.
