New Zealand Football boss Andy Martin has been inundated with applicants for the All Whites coaching job, despite the position only being formally advertised today.
The review into the failed World Cup campaign has been completed, but not made public.
Martin says it now means they can press on with finding the long-term replacement for Ricki Herbert.
He says he's had about 50 applicants up until now, and needs to look at the make up of the management structure.
"The key decision is how we put the team together. In an ideal world we're looking at a coach that's fulltime, that can deliver on the high stakes.
