Hughes said: "Rangers play football the way it should be played. They keep the ball, you don't get atouchofit.
"I could sit here and wax lyrical about Rangers because their style of play is right up my street.
"Proper football; Everybody can look after the ball, full-backs scoring goals, guys coming off the bench and doing the business, plenty of rotation, pace, goals and that's why where they are where they are.
"Ihavebeentoibroxmany atimewhenyouarerightup againstit.thereisnogetting away from it, they have better players than us.
"I use a great phrase; bulls and matadors. There is many a time I have been the bull and it is not nice getting a chasing. It might be like that on Saturday. Many a time I have coached a team when they have been matadors and it is a great feeling when you are looking after the ball and taking your time, taking the sting out of the opposition, movingtofromsidetoside,looking for that opening. That's what Rangers do.” Hughes added: "So we will be right up against it but it is one we are looking forward to. As a player it cannot faze you, it has to inspire you."
