(Reuters) - Former Liverpool forward Raheem Sterling said their players were affected by pressure from fans during their failed Premier League title charge in 2014, but things are very different at his current club Manchester City.

Liverpool topped the table with three games to go five years ago as they chased their first league title since 1990, but the Merseyside club allowed City to overtake them and win the league by two points.
