One of football's best loved pundits, Guillem Balagué is the author of 10 books, including on Messi, Ronaldo, Maradona and Guardiola. Here he gives his verdict on the the greatest player of all time, how he fell out with Ronaldo, what he thinks of the foreign ownership of clubs, highlights the scourge of racism in the game, explains the difference between football in England and Spain, predicts who will win the Euros, offers support to Gareth Southgate, and reveals that his real passion is story-telling, not football.
