sorry should've said not your most natural of footballers, always looks awkward to me. But he can take a pen that's for sure.
But personally i think we would score more goals with Rojas and Greive on the pitch. More suited for free flowing football. Wood struggles with that. But he's the captain and the coach must find a way to make him useful. Aussies have better strikers in players like Duke who is similar to Wood in stature but can play different styles with players around him like Maclaren, Leckie and McGree - I've always been jealous of that.
i think i good overseas coach would take a pay cut to coach us because if we get to the world cup and lets be honest we should....well it would look great on their cv and could simply lead to bigger and better things for them. But NZ definitely want a coach who has some connection to the NZ culture and our way of life so leaves limited options.
