As the end of the season draws closer, upon early reflection it's safe to say the eight permanent signings Arsenal have made over the course of both transfer windows have played their part one way or another.
Whether it's Gabriel Jesus, Jorginho and Oleksandr Zinchenko raising the standard to leave Mikel Arteta's side with a chance of being crowned Premier League champions, Leandro Trossard proving to be a useful squad addition or Jakub Kiwior eventually stepping in for the injured William Saliba, overall the Gunners' business is looking rather impressive.
But as the quintet arrived at the Emirates Stadium along with Matt Turner, Marquinhos and Fabio Vieira, many others - including the 29-man strong loan army - moved on to pastures new as the north London outfit were able to recoup around £19m in player sales as Arteta and sporting director Edu continued the overhaul of the first-team squad.
