Alongside answering questions about his own team, Enrique also offered his opinion on his expectations for other sides, including his former La Blaugrana star Lionel Messi, and Argentina.
“I think Brazil and Argentina are favourites”, as per his Twitch interview.
“Then France, who are the current champions. Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, England and Belgium are also close.
“If we’re not going to win it, I want Argentina to win.
“A world-class player like Messi has to retire with a World Cup, in what would be his last World Cup.

“Although, I think he could play in the next one.
“But I prefer that Spain win, of course. And also maybe Uruguay for Luis Suarez, too.”
Enrique wrapped up by confirming his plans to host another live recording tomorrow, but warned fans he will not be streaming after games, due to a recovery period for himself and the team.
