The City boss also criticised his players lack of desire after the 2-0 defeat at Fratton Park on Saturday afaternoon.

"It is a missed opportunity," Hughes said after the game.

"We were looking to get positive points, ideally three.

"But you cannot win if you do not have the majority of your team playing well.

"We did not really deserve anything from the match.

"We did not have a determination and a willingness to chase lost causes.

"This was a setback, but we have to pick ourselves up and make sure we are in better shape for our upcoming games."
