Jo double is just the job for Hughes


19.09.08

Manchester City manager Mark Hughes believes his side have strong attacking options as they head towards the group stages of the UEFA Cup.

Jo's first goals for the club following his £19million move from CSKA Moscow helped beat AC Omonia 2-1 in their first round tie in Cyprus. While Hughes was thrilled with the Brazilian, he also praised Robinho and Shaun Wright-Phillips.

Hughes said: "Everyone must have enjoyed Robinho's performance. He has fantastic ability and is very effective. He was excellent, as was Shaun. He keeps working extremely hard for the team."

Aston Villa came from behind to win the first leg of their tie with Litex Lovech 3-1 in Bulgaria.
