What "abuse" did he get? Are you sure it wasn't "hate" now?Sterling is infuriating at times but the abuse from some sections yesterday was unfair. His movements caused havoc at the back for them and created oceans of space for the likes of De Bruyne and Foden.
I think some people were a bit impatient with us passing it backwards but we had to do it because we were up against a very good team that closes down space well and has excellent shape and organisation without the ball.
It was a good performance but with poor finishing and costly defensive lapses.
Maybe, just maybe, it was criticism.
