Sydney coach Littbarski: More to come from Yorke

tribalfootball.com - October 1, 2005

Sydney FC Coach Pierre Littbarski has sent out an ominous warning to the other seven Hyundai A-League clubs by declaring the in form Dwight Yorke is yet to reach his potential in a Sydney FC shirt.

Yorke has proved his worth already in the A-League, scoring three goals in four matches, and has also thrown himself into his work, illustrated by his effort in setting up Andrew Packer for the opening goal against the Central Coast two weeks ago.

Critics of bringing the former Manchester United striker to Australia have fallen silent but Littbarski believes he will get even better.

"I think we will see an even better Dwight Yorke in the coming weeks and matches," Littbarski said. "When he came to us he had not played a lot of matches and he had to work very hard on his fitness, which he has done.

"He has been doing well but I think we have not seen the best of Dwight yet. We are just starting to learn to play better as a team and we showed a lot of improvement against Queensland (Roar) last weekend.

"When we improve as a team he will be better also."

Yorke will take his place in an unchanged Sydney FC line up for tomorrow night's (Saturday) clash with Perth Glory at Members Equity Stadium.
