The new Wellingtion Phoenix signing Roy Krishna admits adjusting to the faster pace of the game will be his biggest challenge as he prepares to take on the A-League.
The Auckland City striker got a callup earlier this week while he was back home in Fiji celebrating christmas with his family.
Krishna, who's an injury replacement for Paul Ifil, had his first training run with the side on Wednesday.
He's poised to become the first Fijian footballer to play in the A-League although it won't be on Sunday against the Central Coast Mariners as coach Ernie Merrick says he won't be considered this week.
