Stoke City boss Mark Hughes has been left frustrated with the lack of effort shown by Manchester City striker Wilfried Bony, according to the Daily Mirror.

The 27-year-old, who joined the Potters on a season-long loan deal from City during the summer, is yet to score a goal in three appearances this season.

Bony is currently the club's highest earner as the Potters are paying most of his £120,000-a-week salary.

The report claims that the manager and his teammates are not happy with the Ivorian's attitude and believe that he is not pulling his weight.

The Potters are currently placed at the bottom of the league table with just one point from five games ahead of Saturday's home clash with West Bromwich Albion.
