You might be tripping I understand your point, but even discounting Arsenal-grown Gnabry, there's Goretzka (arguably), Süle (most definitely) and Kimmich (okay, 2. Bundesliga ).

Right, forgot Gnabry. I knew such a comment was bound to embarrass me. Although in my defence rumour has it we had an agreement with him before he came to the Bundesliga.

I would not consider Süle and especially Goretzka players we couldn’t do without or ones we can’t have gotten similar quality players for similar prices from different leagues. Süle’s price tag was more or less fair at the time and Goretzka came on a free so he really doesn’t count (Real Madrid wanted him iirc, he still chose us so clearly it was not money making the decision for him).

Might argue for Pavard as well...

Also not cheap though.

Oh come on, our team has massively benefited being the top dog in BL, why the hell would we want to make other teams stronger
