Mark Hughes looking for more from Marko Arnautovic after Stoke striker's double against Middlesbrough

Stoke boss Mark Hughes feels Marko Arnautovic should be showing the kind of form he did in Saturday's 2-0 win over Middlesbrough more often.

A sparkling display from the Austrian winger at the bet365 Stadium saw him net both of the Potters' goals.

The first came in the 29th minute when he controlled Glenn Whelan's long forward pass, got away from George Friend and past Victor Valdes before firing into the net.

Arnautovic then added a close-range finish in the 42nd minute after Peter Crouch headed the ball his way from a corner, taking his tally of Premier League goals for the season to five.
