Barcelona coach Tata Martino has no doubts about midfielder Sergi Busquets.

Busquets has been criticised for his stamping incident on Real Madrid defender Pepe during the El Clasico.

"He's an exceptional footballer, perhaps it's taken too long for him to get recognition. For me he's a key player for Barça. I'm surprised he isn't selected more often for all-star teams," argued Martino.
