Sydney FC international marquee Marc Janko hosted the live Twitter chat today ahead of Sunday’s #SummerFootball clash against the Wellington Phoenix (kick of 5pm). During the hour we learnt what languages he speaks, how good he is at skiing and just how many Hagi Gligors it’d take to reach the top of his head.
