Man City boss Hughes wants to face angry AC Milan

Manchester City boss Mark Hughes hopes to face an angry AC Milan in Saturday's big preseason friendly.

Milan are still smarting from Sunday's 5-0 thumping by Chelsea and Hughes told City's website: "That result surprised me, you don't often see a Milan team lose 5-0! On the back of that we are the next in line so we had better watch out.

"In a way I hope there's a backlash because we want a competitive game. Some pre-season games don't have a lot of contact in them and are not games that prepare you in the correct way, but I anticipate that our next two will be very different."
