Yes but Barry you could argue is now past his best and will and never was as good as De Rossi - Martinez is 21 and could very well be - the fact that Barca were interested and was their number 1 signing (the are now after Song now Martinez has gone to Bayern) and the fact Bayern have paid north of 30 Million Euros for him would indicate he could be - depends if you have along term or short term view - personally Martinez would be the more sensible option but i think De Rossi is a must (or similar player)
