If I were smart, I would look to get my hands on this job ASAP.
1: The next 4 year cycle will be quiet and thats just the way its going to be
2: The 4 year cycle after that, you are pretty much the only team guaranteed to be going to the WC. I can't see any other teams in OFC getting past us so get in and do the 4 years knowing that the 4 after that you will be in the Worlld Cup and coaching in the shop window. (wherever it is in 2026)
The hosts and New Zealand the certainties for the 2026
You'd want to waste seven years of your career because you can near-guarantee two games at a World Cup in 2026 coaching one of the weakest entrants?
I know which is more appealing
How many coaches land decent jobs from solely being present at a World Cup with a shark nation? I'd wager not many.
About the same as players from sharke nations who stand out in their sharke teams because everyone else in the team is sharke.
(Remember post 2010 World Cup when half of our team were apparently going to Arsenal?\)
