Manchester City players and manager Roberto Mancini celebrated their Premier League title at a packed victory parade on Monday.

Tens of thousands of fans formed a sea of blue along the streets of Manchester as the squad travelled across the city centre in an open-top bus.

The parade made its way to the town hall where players held the Premier League trophy aloft in front of City’s jubilant fans

Mancini took the reins at Etihad Stadium in 2009 and oversaw the Sky Blues’ FA Cup triumph last season before guiding the club to its first title since 1968 on Sunday.

City sealed the title in dramatic fashion after scoring two injury-time goals to defeat QPR, denying defending champions Manchester United a 20th league crown.
