Carlos is a picture of focus and concentration with Maicon and Kolarov in close attendance

An arty shot of the boss looking as intense as ever

Another arty shot from Sharon Latham as Mario and Milner begin a duel that will last the session...

I can't remember too many Tevez headers but it's not as if he doesn't practice them...

One of the more dubious choices of headwear on show but Joe doesn't seem to mind!

Mario was in a typically cheeky mood throughout

Maicon's back! His first day in full training for some time.

Vincent leads the troops into a jog - presumably to keep warm on another Baltic day at Carrington

Mr Lescott was one of few players without a snood on show - perhaps the beard helps with the chill!

Somewhere between that hat and snood is an Argentine footballer who made his 100th Premier League appearance for City last Saturday

The prankster becomes the pranked as Milner swipes Balotelli's hat

The England international throws it to the floor... uh oh...

Phew, Super Mario sees the funny side - let that be a lesson to all - don't dish it out if you can't take it!
