First, a nitpick: Generally speaking, "the counter" is going to refer to situations in which one team has the ball, loses it, then the other team attacks while the other team is not defensively organized or doesn't have enough men back. So Arsenal beating the high press would not really be playing "on the counter" and doing so involves a different set of circumstances. The defending team generally is still quite organized, its just that they are playing a very advanced (high) defensive line, since the high press usually involves pressuring the ball actively as an entire team.Yeah, about that game plan... I'm new-ish to following PL tactics, please permit me a question: how in god's name was Liverpool able to high-press so ferociously for so long without getting burned on the counter? By a team as capable on the counter as Arsenal?
