Man City boss Hughes expects Robinho to see Chelsea action

Manchester City boss Mark Hughes is confident that Robinho will see some action against Chelsea this weekend.

He said: "The likelihood is that Robinho will be involved. The great thing about Robinho is that he offers us options as to where he can play and that kind of flexibility is something I am always looking for in players.

"He can play wide on the left, behind a striker or alongside a target man and that will be invaluable. He is the sort of player who can affect the game wherever he is on the pitch."
