Really? So that means that counters are just something players invented by themselves without managers instructions.OK.
Barca was beasting with counters under Tata even with Pedro and Alexis, with MSN it's even more effective.
I think he means his philosophy was always to play this kind of football but it only really started to click when Messi moved the the right, Alves moved more to the middle making it a 3-4-3 in essencse and Iniesta and Rakitic formed a better midfield partnership.
