JV....can you explain why you think Emblem can't be AW coach? Does he have to have an A Badge or something to coach internationally

Seems to me that Emblem is being groomed for the job. The cupboard is bare after that. Ramon Tribulitx would be interesting but it would be too left field for NZF.

In an ideal world if we had the money and we were going to playoff for a WC slot in the Asian playoff series Arnold would be a good option. Timing would be good too....he could finish his two year spell in the J-League in time to come in as AW coach for the playoffs.

Realistically we won't be playing much if at all in the next 2 years. NZF will go for the low budget option.

I have to profess off the bat that I want him to get the job. I have pushed his name in this forum the last while. I thought an axis of him and Nelsen would be great for the national side. It would be a decent blend of Kiwi and overseas thinking, experienced and inexperience and both have played at the top level so undestand that side of the game. I like what he did with the Olys, Nelsen said it was great and refreshing, and he has a record in his short coaching career of giving youth a chance. Nelsen is finding his feet still but I think what he lacks in coaching experience, he bring to it in smarts that he had as a player (call it professionalism or whatever)

What I have heard from a source bloody close to him is that NZF wont give him the job because he lacks the coaching tickets. He would be surprised if he got the job quote unquote.

So it not that I don't think he can't be the coach because I think he can. Its that he would not get it.
