SCARRED by his experience as interim Socceroos boss, Central Coast coach Graham Arnold has said he would only return to the national team post if it were on his terms.
Football Federation Australia last week declared their intention to hire a local to replace sacked Holger Osieck with chairman Frank Lowy declaring it a three-horse race, now confirmed to be between Ange Postecoglou, Tony Popovic and Graham Arnold.
FFA has contacted the three respective A-League clubs in recent days and plans to interview each candidate in the next few days.

Postecoglou is the favourite with Melbourne Victory officials already planning contingencies, but Arnold spoke extensively after the Mariners' 2-2 draw away to Melbourne Heart last night.
Arnold replaced Guus Hiddink after the 2006 World Cup and led the Socceroos during a disappointing 2007 Asian Cup as interim before he was replaced by Pim Verbeek although he continues as assistant.
"I had a period of six or seven months when I was interim coach and it was murder because it's so hard if you can't do things the way you want to do it," Arnold said.

"Whether it's Ange or Tony, and I worked with Pim and Guus Hiddink, they want their own people and ones they know they can work with and trust.
"I'm sure Ange would want his own people around him and that's the only way you can be successful.
"It's a big job, it's a job that a lot of people would like but from my side I don't need the job. They have to want me to be the manager and they have to want me to take the job.

"I'm honoured to be a candidate for the national team but there's a lot of water to go under the bridge.
"I haven't haven't been out of international football for that long. You've also got to think from the coach's side of it, we didn't apply for the job and it's just been put out there that we are candidates so whether it's Tony, myself or Ange we also have a say in what the job's about if we do want the job.
"It's all up in the air at the moment. It would be an honour but there's a lot of thinking to do on my side of it.

"I'm happy doing what I'm doing and my ambition's never changed. I had 10 years with the national team, I've been to two World Cups and enjoyed every minute and I've got an ambition to go overseas. I really enjoy club coaching."
Arnold said the Australian trio were supportive of each other.
"I think Ange is a fantastic candidate, Popa's a great candidate and they (FFA) will make their own decision and part of their decision will also be my decision," he said.
"I'm a great friend of Ange's and got the greatest respect and regard for him. This isn't an Ange versus Arnie situation at all, I would be so happy if Ange got it and I'm sure he'd be happy if I got it.
"Both of us have put a lot of effort and work into Australian football over a lot of years and we're just passionate about the sport and we just want to see it go forward in Australia."
