Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has laughed off Robinho's push for more top drawer Brazilians at Eastlands.

Robinho has suggested a couple of transfer targets that Hughes should look at when the transfer window opens in January - Kaka and Ronaldo.

The Eastlands chief joked: "I noticed they are all Brazilians by the way!

"I think he was being a bit tongue-in-cheek there.

"He likes to surround himself with his friends as we know but I don't think we should place too much emphasis on that."
