Bob Ventimiglia | MLS Analysis, Expert Picks

Before and after for the weekend.

LAFC really thinking outside the box with their big coach signing, eh?

Pander to, and he panders back.

When the hoodie zaps all the energy out of you.

Who else wouldn’t want to be England? 🥵

The Soccer Sharps AND Bob from the Designated Pundits? 👀

Go take a look, Hooligans Soccer representing!

Absolutely.

Translation-

No effing way.

Wilfred Nancy leaving isn’t a loss for MLS.

It’s a path for future coaches to cut their teeth in the US and move to Europe. This could be a great thing.

I wish him the best, and think he’ll do well.

Not nearly done, but a little bit of the holidays with some permanent lights.

Still have to hide some wires. But that 30 degree wind hit hard enough for me to pack it in for the night.

Adidas is trying to push the limits of what Trinity Rodman can sell.

Let me be clear. These USMNT throwbacks are ugly. They are also undoubtedly nostalgic.

Looks great on her.
Looked great on Wynalda and Alexi.

Still a no for me.

All these excuses.

If that was Lamar or Mahomes that LB would get the chair.

SDFC host Vancouver tonight, and the deciding factor to me is the home side. I would take VCW at home, if they had the opportunity to host.

+140 was the play earlier in the week.
SDFC should play against Inter Miami in the MLS Cup Final

Inter Miami should get the win over NYCFC, who are one of the only teams to keep them under 3 goals at home (way earlier this season).

I think we see a correction and Miami hits 3 goals. At +124 we are getting a great price for a team with 2.68 gpg at home and 8 of their last 8 home games over 2.5

San Diego FC host the Vancouver Whitecaps in the late MLS match.

SDFC comes out as heavy favorites because they're at home. Vancouver will need to outperform the home advantage to get a win.

Inter Miami is favored to NYCFC today.

Surprising is the goal total- Miami is covering 2.5 and almost 3.5 every match by themselves. This one could be lower scoring.

Short week with only 2 MLS matches, and the model LOVES each home team to get a victory.

Below are our graphics including win % and number for over and under 2.5 and 3.5 goals.

NOT A KEEPER: Coronel, out of contract with Red Bulls, becomes a free agent - Front Row Soccer In what was not a surprising move, veteran goalkeeper Carlos Coronel will not return to the New York Red Bulls for the 2026 MLS season, the team announced on Wednesday morning.

My view right now.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Before and after first half of the kitchen. Getting there 🔨 🏡

Rams are just out there having a scrimmage.

Worst turf Son has played on in ….
how long- do you think?

SON- WOW.

COULDN’T WRITE THE SCRIPT BETTER.

We talked #NWSLFinal this week on the podcast (our first official NWSL segment.... 👀) and I'm taking GOALS this time around.

Last year's NWSL Cup Final was low scoring, so lets see both teams to score and 3 goals or more. Current odds are +122.

I love #SDFC at home this weekend, especially after they started scoring this postseason (after a little late season offensive slump).

Drop your pick below- I'll take SDFC and 2 or more goals at -127.
