“The Making of the Greatest Team in the World”

Take the Ball, Pass the Ball is the definitive story of the greatest football team ever assembled.

In this exclusive, first-hand account of events between 2008 and 2012, the players themselves reveal the tension of the bitter Guardiola-Mourinho rivalry, the emotion of Abidal's fight back from cancer to lift the European Cup and how Messi, the best footballer the world's ever seen, was almost rejected by Barça as a 13-year-old.
