Mark Hughes was scathing about a hotel after a late switch forced them to stay in Cardiff the night before their match with Swansea City.

Mark Hughes has described the Swansea Marriott as one of the "poorest hotels we stay in" after Southampton's preparations for Tuesday's crunch clash against Swansea City were disrupted.

The Saints were meant to the staying at the Marriott, but were forced to change hotels at short notice and had to spend the night before the game in Cardiff – almost 40 miles away.

Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the game, Hughes said: "Actually, they've done us a favour. The Swansea Marriott is one of the poorest hotels we stay in."

When asked if he thought there was anything suspicious about the circumstances around the late switch, Hughes added: "You have to take them at their word."
