Manchester City boss Mark Hughes admits he may buy during the summer with a view to emulating Arsenal's style.
He told City's website: "There are areas in which anyone would want to emulate Arsenal. They have a lot of pace and technically they are terrific in understanding the way the manager wants them to play.
"We have players of similar ilk who want to get on the ball and be creative, so there are comparisons, but obviously Arsenal are further down the line. They have had the benefit of players coming through and years of squad planning. We are not quite there yet."
