Roberto Mancini's four years in charge of Manchester City bought some turbulent times at the Etihad, with the Italian falling out with plenty of people but also bringing success to the club.

It was Mancini who ended the club's long trophy drought with the 2011 FA Cup, before the incredible Premier League title win the following season.

In helping to transform City's fortunes under the ownership of Sheikh Mansour Mancini signed a total of 21 players, including some key figures in the past decade at the club.

Yet there were also plenty of duds in there as well, players who struggled at City and have found life tough once they'd moved on.

This is what those 21 Mancini buys are up to now.

Patrick Vieira - Joined on a free from Inter Milan in January 2010 and spent 18 months at City before hanging up his boots. He stayed at the club as a youth-team coach for a few years before taking charge of New York City FC in 2015. Now the manager of French side Nice.

Adam Johnson - Without a club following his release from prison earlier this year after serving three years at HMP Moorland for child sex offences.

Edin Dzeko - The big Bosnian striker is still doing the business at the top level. He's in his fifth season at Roma and has already scored 102 goals for the Giallorossi - 30 more than he managed for City.

Yaya Toure - One of City's all-time greats left under a cloud last year as he accused Guardiola of discriminating against African players. Currently playing for Chinese side Qingdao Huanghai.

Mario Balotelli - Why always me? The Italian is currently at Brescia having joined the Serie A club from Marseille in August. He's scored five goals in 19 games for his new club.

David Silva - One of only two players on this list still at City in a playing capacity, the Spaniard is an all-time great and plans to call time on his Blues career when this season ends.

Aleksandar Kolarov - Flogged to Roma when Guardiola overhauled City's defence in 2017. He's scored 18 goals in 117 games for the Serie A giants.

James Milner - Has been at Liverpool since leaving City for free in 2015.

Jerome Boateng - City never saw the best of him and he proved himself to be one of the world's premium central defenders after joining Bayern Munich. Has been on the wane for some time now, though.

Sergio Aguero - Still at City, still banging in goal after goal.

Samir Nasri - Joined Antalyaspor from City in 2017 after a season on loan at Sevilla. His move to Turkey didn't quite go to plan, though, and he was serving a doping ban up until January this year. Signed a short-term deal at West Ham in January before linking back up with Vincent Kompany at Anderlecht in July.

Stefan Savic - Like Boateng, City never saw the best of Savic. Injury hampered him last season season but the Montenegrin is a key player for Atletico Madrid when fit.

Gael Clichy - Left City at the same time as Kolarov as Guardiola looked to strengthen in the full-back areas. The Frenchman is currently at Istanbul Basaksehir.

Costel Pantilimon - The 6ft8in goalkeeper is plying his trade in the Championship with Nottingham Forest, although he is currently on loan at Omonia in Cyprus, after stints with Sunderland, Watford and Deportivo La Coruna.

Owen Hargreaves - A superb player in his day but Hargreaves' body had given up on him by the time he joined City in 2011 and he retired a year later after just four appearances for the Blues. Now working as a TV pundit for BT Sport.

Javi Garcia - Had a lofty reputation when City signed him from Benfica but he flopped in his two years with the club. Now at Real Betis after three years with Zenit.

Matija Nastasic - Another defender who didn't show his best form at City. The Serbia international has proved himself to be a solid centre-back at Schalke, where he has been since January 2015.

Jack Rodwell - Signed for Sheffield United after a trial earlier this season, having been released by Blackburn Rovers in the summer.

Scott Sinclair - Ended a four-year stint at Celtic in January to sign for Championship side Preston North End

Maicon - A Champions League winner with Inter in 2010, Maicon was past his best when he joined City in 2012. Lasted just a year before being shipped off to Roma. Announced his retirement in December 2017 before making a comeback with second-tier Brazilian side Criciuma earlier this year.

Richard Wright - Didn't play a single game for City in his four years as a player there. Now a goalkeeping coach at the club.
