Defends well in shutout win Chara made a clearance and won three of four tackles in Sunday's 1-0 victory against FC Dallas. He also recorded a secondary assist in the match.
Impact Chara helped the Timbers keep a third clean sheet in their last five league games on Sunday, and he's still played every minute of his side's MLS campaign in defensive midfield. Cristhian Paredes is now his partner in the position following season-ending knee injuries to Eryk Williamson and David Ayala.
JUNE 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Creates two chances in win Chara made an interception and created two chances in Saturday's 2-1 victory against St. Louis City. He also won two of three tackles in the match.
Impact Chara has played every minute of Portland's MLS campaign in defensive midfield, and his role is only growing in importance thanks to Eryk Williamson's torn ACL and another potentially serious injury for David Ayala on Saturday.
APRIL 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Chara was excellent defensively alongside Eryk Williamson in midfield to shut out Kansas City in the season opener on Monday.
FEBRUARY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Misses season finale Chara was not involved in Sunday's 3-1 Decision Day defeat against Real Salt Lake.
Impact Chara remains indispensable for Portland and this season he kept four clean sheets and recorded two assists in 28 MLS appearances (27 starts) in defensive midfield. He'll be turning 37 years old near the start of the 2023 campaign, so presumably he'll have to be rotated out of the XI at some point.

RSL secures playoff spot with 3-1 win over the Timbers

Jefferson Savarino scored early and Real Salt Lake went on to secure a spot in the MLS playoffs with a 3-1 victory over the Portland Timbers on Sunday

Scores own goal in draw Chara created a chance and won one of one tackles in Saturday's match against FC Dallas, and he made four clearances and five interceptions as well. Unfortunately for him, he also...
Impact Chara equalized Saturday's game for the wrong team, accidentally heading Jesus Ferreira's corner kick into his own net 10 minutes into second-half stoppage time. He was playing well defensively beyond that error and will look to bounce back next weekend in midfield.

Timbers and Dallas draw 1-1, Portland unbeaten in 10 games

AUGUST 4, 2022 • Associated Press
Suspended against Nashville Chara will miss Wednesday's clash against Nashville SC with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.
Impact Chara picked up his eighth booking of the season in Saturday's draw against Minnesota United, meaning he will be suspended for Wednesday's match. Eryk Williamson (hamstring) or Cristhian Paredes (ankle) could replace him in midfield for the game if either are fit enough, or Yimmi Chara and George Fochive are other options if not.
JULY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Goes full 90 in return Chara (foot) started and went the full 90 in Saturday's win against Seattle, totaling three clearances and five tackles.
Impact Chara was back in the squad Saturday after missing just one match with a foot injury. He remains a constant in Portland's midfield, but he doesn't get up the field much and has again committed more fouls than he's drawn, something that's been the case every season for him in Portland.
JULY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Should return Saturday Chara (foot) is expected to be available for selection in Saturday's clash against the Sounders, Portland manager Gio Savarese said Thursday.
Impact Chara was sidelined with a foot injury against Nashville last weekend, but he should return to the squad on Saturday. Eryk Williamson (foot) and Cristhian Paredes (hamstring) are also dealing with knocks, so it is unclear who will be fit enough to get the starts in defensive midfield against Seattle.

Joveljic leads the LA Galaxy against the Portland Timbers

Dejan Joveljic leads the LA Galaxy into a matchup with the Portland Timbers after a two-goal outing against Austin
JUNE 17, 2022 • Associated Press
Eligible to return versus Galaxy Chara has served his one-match suspension and will be available against Los Angeles on June 18.
Impact Chara has started all but one of his 12 appearances this season, in which he garnered eight chances created, one assist and 25 tackles, so he should jump right back into the starting XI. Primarily serving in a defensive role, Chara is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value even with him back on the pitch.
JUNE 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Suspended against Miami Chara will miss Saturday's clash against Inter Miami with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.
Impact Chara picked up his fifth booking of the season in last weekend's loss to Philadelphia, meaning he will be suspended for Saturday's match. With Eryk Williamson (knee) and George Fochive (hip) both injury doubts Sebastian Blanco or Yimmi Chara might be pushed back into defensive midfield for the game.
MAY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Records assist in win Chara assisted a goal and made five interceptions in Saturday's 7-2 victory against Sporting KC. He also won three of three tackles in the match.
Impact Chara was back in the starting lineup Saturday for the first time since suffering a hip injury about a month ago, and he was solid in front of the defense as his side trounced Kansas City, even assisting a late goal from Santiago Moreno. He will want to have a similar impact Wednesday against the Earthquakes, which are 11th in the Western Conference table.
MAY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to bench Chara (hip) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with NYRB.
Impact Chara has had a rough couple weeks, missing time due to a positive COVID-19 case, and then picking up a hip injury following his return to training. The midfielder will hope to return to the starting XI and press on with the rest of the season. When fully healthy Chara started all eight matches to begin the campaign.
MAY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable with hip issue Chara is dealing with a hip problem and is questionable against Red Bulls on Saturday.
Impact Chara missed the previous two matches while in the league's health and safety protocols but now appears to have picked up an injury as well. Prior to his absence, the midfielder started all eight matches for the club in which he generated 17 tackles (eight won), 10 interceptions and 12 clearances. Given his primarily defensive posture, Chara is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value even if restored to the starting XI on Saturday.
MAY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Enters health and safety protocol Chara was ruled out for Saturday's match against Colorado after entering the health and safety protocol.
Impact Chara was confirmed out of the starting XI after entering the health and safety protocol. The defender has been an integral of the starting lineup and is on pace to post similar defensive statistics to his 2020-2021 campaign. If healthy, expect the midfielder to return to the starting lineup against New York.

Quiet for draw Chara sent in created two chances and committed three fouls during Sunday's one-all draw with Orlando.
Impact Chara had a quiet game as he continues his role in defensive midfield. The defender did create two chances, his first two of the season. He will be a solid fantasy play, but not one with any sort of exceptional ceiling against LA Galaxy next time out.
