That's what I said and the post got deleted. I also pointed out there were already two other threads on this topic, both of which were in the correct forum.

Given this was created by a mod and mods don't like to shown to be wrong I am not surprised.
What do we have to do to get some consistency around here?

I would rather he went into an AIS type role.

I don't think he has the tactical acumen to succeed with the Olyroos.

Last two club's he was at he won trophies. I think he'll balance the push for results and development well.
IMO I really can't think of anyone realistically I'd rather see in the role.

Yes I know I'm being biased!

for winning a few early season midweek games at home against second string line ups.

Gombau appointment is a mistake and once again proves the FFA have learned nothing.

You're not making any sense. (as usual)

I bet he will be next in line for the top job when Ange moves onto a higher role overseas. The role might already be promised to him to get him into the set up.

I'm not so sure. IMO his coaching style is more suited to youth sides learning a system. Much of his coaching career has been with youth sides as well. I wouldn't be surprised if he chooses to stay in that area or gets into a technical director role.

I think he's just trying different options to build up his resume' and gain wider experience of coaching.
