Jesus sometimes drops to the midfield when he doesn't get the ball for a period of time but Torres stays up and makes runs,great strikers like Aguero and Suarez never drop deep,they stay high up and make runs hoping for balls to be played through and that's why they score so many
As for their work off the ball you can't really tell who's better , both work hard-Jesus averages 13.7 presses per 90 while Torres averages 13.5 presses per 90.
