While the Bayern ace only enhanced his on-field reputation and underscored his importance to the Rekordmeister this past season, a debate is raging here in Germany as to whether Kimmich is a true No. 6 by nature. Part of me wanted to give this position to someone else, such as Patrik Schick or the incredible Anthony Modeste, but Lewandowski remains the gold standard even though the body language away from the game might reveal a slightly unhappy camper. You also sense the joy he derives from playing, which is not always a given with everyone. Müller remains the true assists king of German football and was formally crowned as such for the fourth time in five seasons. He has also become a leader within the team, carrying others on his young, broad shoulders. Is there a more entertaining right-back in the Bundesliga? That the diminutive Frimpong might be even more at home higher up the pitch gives you a clue as to why he's so eye-catching. Bayern reportedly made a late push to hijack the deal, but the youngster had already reached his decision. In his first season, he was allowed to feel his way somewhat, not always a regular, but with abundant promise. He's a true Malocher (someone addicted to hard work) and provides a big part of the platform for the creative Vincenzo Grifo on the left, the team's Zuckerseite (their productive flank.) Günter really cares. Süle ultimately didn't feel appreciated enough at Bayern and their loss is BVB's gain for the next four years. There will be omissions that some regard as egregious and unfair, but this is not meant to be a scientific study analysing every challenge, pass and speed clocked. That might be the reaction of someone who watches the Bundesliga only peripherally.

Erling Haaland has made his much-anticipated move from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City and, alongside these seven brilliant signings, ...

Sure, his time at Arsenal petered out afterwards. His total of 22 goals and 14 assists in 90 appearances for the Blues isn’t mind-blowing but there’s still plenty of time for Havertz to boost his numbers over the forthcoming years. Seventy-two goals in 189 appearances isn’t a record to be sniffed at and the signing from Wolfsburg proves that there’s value to be had from the Bundesliga. “The world is going mad,” Phil Thompson said. After moving to the Emirates for £56million at the start of 2018, the Gabon international won the Premier League Golden Boot and scored twice in Arsenal’s FA Cup final victory over Chelsea in 2020. The 29-year-old is the leading Asian goalscorer in both Premier League and Champions League history and his partnership with Harry Kane is one of the best things about modern football.
