“I thought that was our best performance of the season with the ball,” Arnold told Fox Sports.

“We kept the ball very well. We created a lot of chances and our pressing was outstanding as well, so overall I couldn’t be happier.

“I can’t see any reason why we can’t (go unbeaten) if we continue to play like that.”

Sydney cruise past Reds to go eight clear

In-form midfielder Milos Ninkovic again starred for Sydney as his seventh goal of the season – a composed finish inside a congested penalty area – secured three points after Alex Brosque’s opener.

While the club has spoken to Ninkovic about staying beyond the current season, the former Dynamo Kyiv man has only one thing in mind.

“He just wants to finish the season off," Arnold said. "He wants to concentrate solely on playing and winning the competition..

“He’s a fantastic player and it’s a privilege to coach him.”
