    Sydney FC coach Ufuk Talay has mused on what tactics the Phoenix men will use as he prepares for his first game back on Kiwi soil since leaving the Wellington A-League football club

    Sydney FC coach Ufuk Talay has mused on what tactics the Phoenix men will use as he prepares for his first game back on Kiwi soil since leaving the Wellington A-League football club


    Saturday's match in Auckland presents a potential contrast in styles - with Sydney favouring a high press this season and the Phoenix largely implementing a sit-back-and-counter approach.

    Ahead of the match-up with good mate and new Wellington coach - Giancarlo "Chiefy" Italiano - Talay says he's preparing for all possibilities.
