    Coach Giancarlo Italiano believes the Wellington Phoenix have shown enough promise this season to prove he's on the right track

    Coach Giancarlo Italiano believes the Wellington Phoenix have shown enough promise this season to prove he's on the right track


    The Nix have sunk to second-bottom on the A-League table with just two wins in eight matches.

    Italiano is adamant he's the right coach for a team that just needs to find consistency.

    But he DOES say...if the powers-that-be need to make a change to move the club forward, they have every right to do so.
