Manchester City boss Mark Hughes insists Robinho isn't to blame for their dismal away record this season.

City have won just once on the road all season in the league, but Hughes is keen to stress that £32million man Robinho is not the only player who should have fingers pointed at him.

Hughes said: "I think that applies to a number of players. Our performances away from home, certainly in the Premier League, haven't been as good as our home form.

"But there is always an opportunity to put things right, to impress, in every game we play.

"That applies to every player in my team - it is not just Robinho that needs to have a positive performance. Every player in my team needs to have a positive performance."
