Arsenal director Daniel Fiszman has revealed the club will not be spending ridiculous amounts of cash on new players like Chelsea have done since the arrival of 'benefactor' Roman Abramovich.
Arsenal fans are becoming frustrated with the club's lack of success on the field over the past couple of seasons, and are desperate to bring in big name signings.
"We don't believe in the benefactor model," Fiszman insisted.
"It is not a question of a one-time infusion of cash to buy player x or player y. You actually then have salaries that are connected to the players."
"What if they don't work out? Do you go and buy another two or three players? Is there any end to it?
"So I think everybody, including Chelsea, knows there are limits. Chelsea were not big spenders last summer certainly - they got our old player Steven Sidwell on a free transfer.
"We believe in the end the self-sustaining model is the right one, the one we have adopted and will continue adopting."
