All smiles: Sydney FC captain Alex Brosque.

It all bodes well, but 33-year-old Brosque knows that early season momentum can quickly become a distant memory.. "It's been a great start to the season but we've just had a meeting and Arnie's pulled all our heads in very quickly, he doesn't want us getting carried away with it and rightly so," Brosque said. "It's a good start but if we look at last season as well, we started the first four games, five games undefeated and it didn't end too well.

"We did make a bit of noise saying we wanted to win all trophies, everything that we play for we want to win. It should be that way, Sydney FC has to be a club that goes into every competition wanting to win it." Melbourne City are the only other side with an unblemished record, following Saturday night's 4-1 derby thumping of Victory. A mouth-watering showdown between the star-studded competition pacesetters isn't scheduled until December 9, although the two could square off earlier should they both win their FFA Cup semi-finals. Sydney travels to the ACT on Tuesday to take on Canberra Olympic on Wednesday night for a chance to play the winner of next week's all-Melbourne semi-final tie. Olympic have enjoyed something of a saloon passage through the tournament, dodging the A-League teams at every step of the draw while beating Surfers Paradise Apollo, Redlands United and Green Gully.

And while Sydney FC will be warm favourites to progress to their first FFA Cup final, Brosque said they would not be taking Olympic lightly. "We'll do a lot of homework on them, they've been great. I don't think they've conceded a goal in the whole tournament so they're obviously defensively very good, we've got to work out ways to break them down," he said. "It'll be tricky going down to Canberra as well, it's a decent road trip but again it's a good opportunity for us to give everything we have for this game and try and get ourselves in a Cup final. "We're ready, Arnie's putting out a full-strength team, he wants to win this competition, we want to win the competition so we'll be doing everything possible to win it." Socceroo Alex Wilkinson will miss the game after injuring an ankle in the win over Central Coast. He spent Sunday in a moon boot, but was walking around without it on Monday and looks to have avoided serious injury, although Sunday's clash with Phoenix may be a step too far.
