That Inter 3-1 game happened almost 2 yrs ago and a lot had changed since. Barca got Cesc, Sanchez, and Villa now. On top of that, Iniesta was injured in that game, if I remember correctly. I had been saying it a lot of times, Barca is byfar the best team at this moment if all things are equal. Luckily, football is full of surprises and nothing seems to be equal before and during the match, just look at Milan and probably CL worst defeat in the 2005 final. I see why alot of people kept saying counter is the best form against Barca, simply b/c you really can't beat them by playing a possession game, or trade punches with them, or stuff them out with pressure. They just got too much talents for any teams to handle. As long as Pep does not try to be a mastermind and play 8 midfielders with Messi and a GK, Barca is very hard to beat.
Having said all that, I don't think Barca is invincible, teams just need commit to defending, score their chances and really play a bit dirty from the start to disrupt Barca's flow, lastly, also hope that Pep uses Sergio and Mascheano as CBs.
As much as I love Robben. No to him as he is only great and maintain to stay healthy for 5 months before big INT'L tournament. I guess the best time to get Robben would be the Winter Transfer window of 2014, since he will probably be injured right after Euro 2012 to X'mas 2013.
