We finish up here with a player who was a loser and then became a winner this year—Mario Balotelli—without whom the world would seem a lot more dull.
Balotelli was sold by City over the winter transfer window after struggling to leave a mark in the Citizens' attack and, well, trying to hit Mancini during a training session—bringing to an end one of the more tumultuous careers that the Sky Blues have seen at the Etihad Stadium.
In 54 appearances, he finished with just 20 goals and one assist (yes, just that Premier League-winning assist) from his time at City—which made him a big loser on the season overall. However, his recent performances at AC Milan have made him a huge winner and have the club poised to launch a very strong domestic and European run next season.
His combination with Stephan El Shaarawy has seen the club not lose a single domestic game in which he has played, with the Italian international netting seven goals in his seven appearances.
Which, in the big picture, makes him some sort of a winner this year now that he's back in his home country, with good form and regular starting appearances.
