He's probably not interested in flying 20 hours to Mynamar, no insult to the lovely Burmese people - but he maybe tempted by a much shorter flight from DC to California/Texas/Florida - or wherever you would organise a game(s) verus Mexico/Honduras/Costa Rica/Panama

I think deep down Nellie's a passionate Kiwi, even if he has lived overseas now 20 odd years. No stone be left unturned to get the man involved

There are a few other stories along these lines and one from about 4 months ago. The impression being given that he is no longer interested in any football based career.  http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/opinion/10447743/Smi...

I was a little surprised that he took up the Toronto gig (probably talked into it by ex DC boss), if he was really interested in a coaching career he would have gotten some coaching qualifications. Don't see him being of much value other than a Braveheart inspired speech before a big game.
