Przemyslaw Frankowski - Out on international duty Frankowski was called up to Poland's training camp and will miss Saturday's match against Montreal, at a minimum. If he makes the final squad, he'll likely be out all of June.
Impact Frankowski has gone a full 90 in five of Chicago's first six matches, which means he'll have to be replaced. While he hasn't made the score-sheet, he's been a key piece in the attack. In his absence, Luka Stojanovic will likely return to the XI after losing his job to Brian Gutierrez.

Bobby Shuttleworth - One save clean sheet Shuttleworth made one save during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.
Impact Shuttleworth wasn't tested in the slightest Saturday, he had his feet up and made the one save he needed to make. The keeper will hope to keep the clean sheets rolling at home Saturday, against Montreal.
MAY 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Francisco Calvo - Busy for clean sheet Calvo made five interceptions and one tackle during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.
Impact Calvo was excellent Saturday, shutting down Miami with ease at every turn. The defender well-earned the clean sheet and looked unstoppable in the back line. He will look to keep this form and shut down Montreal on Saturday.

Alvaro Medran - Nine crosses vs. Miami Medran sent in nine crosses (one accurate) and created no chances during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.
Impact Medran had every chance in the world to set his team up and he repeatedly came up just short. The midfielder was unable to make an impact in the match, and looked off the pace throughout. His duty on set-pieces gives him a solid floor against Montreal on Saturday, but his ceiling is limited.
MAY 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Robert Beric - Four shots in win Beric shot four times (three on goal) during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.
Impact Beric seemed desperate to get on the scoresheet, peppering the Miami net non-stop. Unfortunately the forward was denied well a few times and couldn't get that goal. It was still a strong performance though, and one that bodes well for a Saturday clash with Montreal.
MAY 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Przemyslaw Frankowski - Busy in win Frankowski shot three times off goal and created four chances during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.
Impact Frankowski put together a solid performance alongside Robert Beric, but failed to really stamp his mark on the match. The striker did look to link up with his teammates more, a good sign for the rest of the campaign. Next up is a Saturday clash at home against Montreal.
MAY 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Luka Stojanovic - Scores off bench Stojanovic scored once on his only shot during Saturday's 1-0 win over Miami.
Impact Stojanovic came off the bench with 30 minutes to play, and made an impact immediately netting what proved to be the game-winning goal. The midfielder also sent in a team-second seven crosses and created a strong three chances. He will look to be back in the starting XI Saturday, against Monstreal.

Ignacio Aliseda - Still slow in returning Aliseda (thigh) is still listed as day-to-day, according to manager Raphael Wicky via SB Nation reporter Patrick McCraney. Nacho (Aliseda) is reintegrated with the team, every day...
Impact Aliseda has played just once this season in a short appearance off the bench. Last year, he started in 16 of his 20 league appearances and logged two assists from 17 chances created. He'll have to be more productive than that to be a better option in fantasy and to quickly reclaim a place in the lineup.

Carlos Teran - Could return the weekend Teran (thigh) has a chance to return this weekend, according to manager Raphael Wicky via SB Nation reporter Patrick McCraney. "Carlos (Teran) a little bit ahead of Nacho (Aliseda)...
Impact Teran has yet to play this season and only made two appearances in 2020. Given this prognosis, we should finally be able to get a read on Teran's value by mid-June at the latest, and it will be interesting to see if he starts as soon as he's fit.

Higuain leads Inter Miami CF against Chicago following 2-goal outing
Inter Miami CF plays Chicago after Gonzalo Higuain scored two goals against FC CincinnatiMAY 20, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Bobby Shuttleworth - Stands tall in loss Shuttleworth made three saves and conceded once in the 1-0 loss to D.C. United on Thursday.
Impact Shuttleworth was excellent and he was the only reason that Chicago did not get blown away in the loss. The keeper was forced to make numerous saves and quite a few were high-danger saves at that. After having a rather bumpy start to the season, this performance was rather promising for what he could do. Although he is averaging two goals against per match, he is still making enough saves to at least provide some sort of value.

Alvaro Medran - Whips 11 crosses in 1-0 loss Medran produced four shots (one on target), created two chances, sent 11 crosses (one accurate), took three corners and made two tackles (one won) in the 1-0 loss to D.C. United on...
Impact Medran had his best performance so far this season in the close loss Thursday. The midfielder returned back to his starting spot after coming off the bench against Philadelphia a week ago. He also returned to taking the majority of set-pieces and he added his playmaking ability to it from the wing. Medran took a season high four shots in the win and if he continues to play in this position moving forward, he could start increasing his ceiling tenfold.

Przemyslaw Frankowski - Receives first yellow of season Frankowski took one shot (none on target), created three chances, sent seven crosses (three accurate), made one tackle (none won) and received one yellow card in the 1-0 loss to D....
Impact Frankowski was excellent in the close loss. The winger continued to be a crucial playmaker from the right-flank. He still has yet to top two shots in a given match this season, but he makes it up tenfold with his creativity on the pitch. In the five matches so far, he has taken just six shots, but he has also created 10 chances and sent 22 crosses. He is easily one of the best players in terms of raw peripherals for Chicago and he seems to be kicking into form.
