A-League star Al Hassan Toure says Macarthur are relishing the freedom mentor Dwight Yorke has afforded the young side ahead of a their first home game of the season on Sunday against Adelaide United.

The exciting 22-year-old striker is beginning to grow in confidence, and he said it is because of the former Manchester United's mantra: be free.

Yorke was known for his flamboyant style, which netted 148 goals in 481 senior appearances - and he has clearly passed down his attacking philosophy to his Macarthur charges.
