Stoke boss Hughes delighted with 'really pleasing performance'

Stoke City boss Mark Hughes was delighted with their 3-1 win at Bournemouth.

A fire alarm cut short Hughes' post-match press conference but he had enough time to express his happiness with the performance before joining the evacuation.

He said: "It was a really pleasing away performance, we came here with a good game plan.

"We were prepared to allow Bournemouth to come on to us a little bit.

"We conceded a bit of possession today, more than we usually do but we felt we could get good opportunities on the break today. With the personnel that we have got we could cause Bournemouth a problem."
