From my angle I had no chance to see if it was the correct call. It was frustrating because we were battling and battling for every opportunity to get back in the game.

We feel there are still a lot of quality players in these rounds of the draft, so we did our homework.

[Spartan Stadium] is a tough place to play. I think the attitude coming in was very positive, but with [San Jose] getting the first goal, and now us chasing the game, it makes it doubly hard on us in a building where you don't have a lot of space.

Jeremy is a player we did our homework on. He's a defender, but is actually a converted forward. There are a lot of things we liked about him.

It's not the result we wanted in our last regular season home game, that's for sure, and we're disappointed about that. Just real simple, we missed a real opportunity tonight. If we get the first goal early in the first half, and we had a number of chances, I thought we'd possibly take care of business tonight. Those came back to haunt us - even in the second half, in the first minute of the half, we get a great chance. It's disappointing, but that's all I can say. We just move on from here.

We're thrilled to welcome Diego back to the Chicago Fire family. In getting Diego back, we're getting a known quantity. He's a competitor and a versatile player that will provide us with a number of positional options this year.
