    Wellington Phoenix captain Steven Taylor thinks his side's latest signing fills a massive hole within the team

    Wellington Phoenix captain Steven Taylor thinks his side's latest signing fills a massive hole within the team


    Former English Premier League striker Gary Hooper signed with the club earlier in the week, providing the team with some much needed firepower up front.

    Taylor says Hooper brings something to the squad that they lacked.



    The Phoenix are away to reigning champions Sydney FC at 8pm.
