Manchester City boss Mark Hughes is adamant his side can still claim a place in Europe for a second successive season. Hughes said: "Fulham had a good result at the weekend so the focus shifts to Tottenham.

"It was always going to be a key game in the ones that are left. That is the challenge now.

"Can we get three points at Tottenham and win our last game at home against Bolton. We will see what happens.

"I know some teams think Europe can be a distraction but we would like to be in the competition again next season.

"We enjoyed the experience this year. I think we are a better team as a consequence."
