City ace believes squad capable of challenging

Manchester City ace Robinho sees no reason why Mark Hughes' side cannot challenge for the title this season. The Brazil, who has been linked with a January move to Barcelona, thinks they have made good signings during the close season. With a host of world-class additions on board during the transfer window the ex-Real Madrid man believes they have the talent to succeed. The 25-year-old thinks that with a little extra mental strength they can finish top of the Premier League ladder come the end of the season.

Lofty targets

"The club have set their sights high this year and backed that up in the transfer market," said Robinho. "There have been great additions - now we need to understand we must be stronger mentally. "If we can be like that this season and have what it takes to go for the title. "The more I think about it, the more I think this year must be our year."
