Chris Armas was using an elliptical machine in the basement of his New York home last September when he began watching a Colorado Rapids news conference in the wake of Robin Fraser’s dismissal. A few months removed from his Premier League spell at Manchester United and Leeds United, the 51-year-old cautiously kept his eye out for opportunities to keep coaching. There were a few head coaching jobs available in MLS, but none were more intriguing than the one in Colorado — at least based on what Armas was hearing from Rapids president Pádraig Smith on the podium that day. As Smith talked about developing an identity on the pitch based on a suffocating press and swift attacks to take advantage of Colorado’s altitude, Armas found himself nodding along.
