Western United will continue to take it one week at a time despite growing expectations in the A-League.
Having already succeeded their results of last season, United has been one of the best performing teams this season, having taken points in nine of the last 10 games.
United assistant coach Hayden Foxe said the group continues to take things as they come.
“The players are really buying into what we’re doing, not just on field, but with their conduct off the field as well.
“The group wants to keep improving and improve as a club. We’re taking it week by week and getting better every day and improving every game which is showing on the football field every week.
“We’re not putting a limit on what they can do this season… we’ll keep building strongly. It’s a fantastic playing group.”
Speaking after United’s midweek 1-1 draw with Melbourne Victory, Foxe said the group were able to regroup after a disappointing loss to Sydney in the previous match.
“The performance was really good after a tough game on the weekend,” he said.
“Victory is a tough opposition and Sydney challenge for the title and we faced them back-to-back.
“It was a good response. I felt we had a lot of the ball and were unlucky to cop an injury to Josh Risdon which meant that we had to shuffle things around.
“We made it difficult for them. We showed desperation at the end and this group has shown that all season.
“They are creating something special.”
Wolfe said they weren’t sure of the severity of Risdon’s injury, but said there’s always a lot of concern when someone like Risdon goes down.
For Foxe, who is in his first season at the club, he said he couldn’t have asked for much more.
The former Australian international has been involved at three other A-League in coaching roles since retiring from playing.
Having worked with United coach John Aloisi previously, he said it had been an easy decision to join the club.
“United has been a fantastic club, a family club,” he said.
“They really look after their own family and it’s great to be part of. This industry can be quite cut through. There’s another side, a really caring side.
“John got the head coaching role and I worked with him before, I know what values he wants and this team stands for on and off the field.
“It was a very easy decision to join his coaching staff.”
United was set to face Brisbane Roar on Saturday, after deadline.
Foxe said they would continue to keep it pretty simple as they look to continue their good form.
“We’re not looking too far ahead, every game is its own challenge.
“Every team will challenge you and you have to keep preparing week by week and who knows where you will end up.
“There’s a chance to create something special.”
