Under Rijkaard, Messi did not score more than 20 goals, since working under Pep Messi has not stopped scoring more than 38 goals a season. So who transformed Messi, Rijkaard or Pep?

You fail to realise what Pep brought to this Barcelona side, it was not just about the players he had, it was the style and philosophy he brought and they have been successful from it since. It is easy saying he had good players, difference is Pep transformed them in to world class players.
