'They are a metaphor of @footbalaus. We have no coach and Japanese elegant have an Australian assistant coach. We have a thin bank and a porous defense. Reform is an urgent need.

“We would like to be able to make the appointment before the Shebelieves Cup, but we want to make sure we have the right coach in his place,” Johnson said in December.
“If that takes some extra time, we will take it to have the right coach for the Women's Asian Cup in 2026 and the preparation that goes to him, and then the appropriate coach to take us to the Women's World Cup in 2027.
“I appreciate that it takes time, but that is deliberate.”
