How have you found adapting from working in USA club football, to moving into a national team job for the first time last year?
I’ve got two angles on this. The first is my own satisfaction, enjoyment and passion. From that angle, I’m enjoying every moment because I have to prepare a team to perform. International football is less time on the pitch, but it’s more time preparing; all of the scouting, working with staff, and I’m enjoying that. I’m fine not being on the pitch every day as long as I’m helping a team get better. The amount of time you have means you have to be efficient, and efficient means planning in a way that you have maximum impact with your group. Every second, every moment matters, and I have this mindset.
