Precisely this,. It was a tough afternoon.I don't agree he was back to anonymity at all. He combined really well, his control was great, and he created space with his runs, and his definition in tough spots was good. 1st half, he's surrounded by 3 defenders, he controls and calmly tries a pass to Jesus's run on his back (it was blocked by a defender). That calmness is something no other city player has inside the box.
Also when Sterling played as 9, you could see the immense difference Torres makes. All the passes to Sterling were lost balls due to his bad controls. With Torres every pass continues the attack.
Had he buried his Chance,. Would have capped off a solid performance
