Mark Hughes insists he’s got nothing to prove ahead of his return to Fulham on Saturday.

The Welshman is back at Craven Cottage for the first time since walking out of the club two years ago when Stoke City visit SW6.

Hughes left Fulham under a cloud, claiming he wanted to move on to ‘further his experiences’.

However, the former Manchester United frontman had a nightmare spell in charge of QPR in his next job before being axed by Loftus Road chief Tony Fernandes.

Hughes admits he was wrong to quit Fulham, but insists he’s got no added motivation heading into the clash.

He said: "I don't think I have got anything to prove there. I am looking to go back there with my team now, which is Stoke, and do well.

"At the time I made the decision to leave because, given what I knew and what I thought was going to happen in the future, I couldn't commit to a new contract.

"I made the decision to leave but, with hindsight, it was probably the wrong decision.

"When I was there I had a few doubts over what kind of investment would be made available to strengthen the team. I interpreted that as maybe the club didn't want to keep on progressing.

"Obviously, almost immediately after I left they started investing in good players and spending some money, so I probably got that wrong."
