Veteran midfielder Chris Armas will return to the Chicago Fire for his 10th consecutive season in 2007, following the club's announcement Thursday that the Long Island, N.Y., native has been re-signed. Armas will captain the 'Men in Red' for the fifth consecutive season after taking over that post following the retirement of former Fire great and current U.S. U-23 national team assistant coach Peter Nowak in 2003.
