We should remember all of that. The arrangement will be diverse to the semi- final against Xavi's team, on the grounds that Athletic are different to Barcelona."
On some condemning the Counter-attacking approach utilized against Barcelona. Noting those pundits, he said: "I know a wide range of football. Assuming somebody thinks keeping the ball is the most ideal way to win, that is good. There's no enchanted method for winning matches. There is no such thing as an ideal framework. I'm glad to say Real Madrid can play on the counter, since that is difficult. Our counters against Barcelona weren't one long ball. It was many passes and we had six players in their half for the third goal. Some may say we pause for a moment and we're cautious, however we've scored a bigger number of goals than any other individual in LaLiga."
