M. Hughes: "Stoke City" has not reached its peak form

According to Mark Hughes, despite the fact that Stoke City are currently showing excellent results, they have not yet reached their peak form.

After a tough start to the season, where they failed to win in their first six matches, Hughes' players have now won seven out of nine, defeating Chelsea twice. However, Stoke's manager believes that his team can still play better.

"In my opinion, our current results are good, but in terms of performances, we can still improve. We haven't all played good matches together yet. Individually, some players have had many good matches, and three or four players look amazing, but we still haven't reached the level of play that we can achieve," - Hughes said before the weekend match against Sunderland.

With nineteen points after thirteen rounds, Stoke City currently occupies eleventh place in the Premier League.
