Hughes expects more effort from his Man City players

Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has demanded more workrate and effort from his players as they look to get back to winning ways against Sunderland on Saturday.

City failed to build on their morale-boosting Barclays Premier League victory over Chelsea at the start of the month and dropped points at Bolton before losing at Tottenham in midweek.

"There is a minimum requirement in terms of workrate and effort and (against Spurs) we didn't have a platform to be able to get into people's faces and close people down," Hughes said.

"We don't profess to be the finished article and that was shown. We have to pick ourselves up. We've got a big game at the weekend and it's important we get back on track."

Hughes certainly isn't the "finished article". I am starting to wonder whether or not he actually is the full picnic. Cut the bs Hughes and sort it.
