08/26/2008 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has dropped a strong hint that he will not be adding to his squad before the transfer window closes at the weekend.
The Gunners have been linked with moves for Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso and Aston Villa's Gareth Barry during a summer when Wenger has allowed several members of his squad to leave.
Philippe Senderos is the latest to leave the Emirates Stadium for AC Milan on a season-long loan, but the loss of a number of players this summer will not necessarily force Wenger into the transfer market.
"I believe we have a strong squad and I believe in the players I have instead of always looking at who might be coming in," said the Frenchman.
"It is not one player who makes a difference. It is up to us as team to show personality, strength and belief within the squad.
"We just look at the right player and if we can get him, we get him. If we don't, we don't.
"If nothing is done, it will not limit our ambitions because of it."
Meanwhile, Wenger claims he will not be forced into the transfer market by reports linking some of Europe's leading players to his club's Premier League rivals.
Referring to Chelsea's reported interest in Robinho and his side's 1-0 defeat at Fulham on Saturday, he said: "The names do not impress me. What is impressive for me is the attitude, the quality.
"There is only one thing important and that is what you do on the pitch.
"I agree that what we did on the pitch on Saturday was not good enough, but all the rest to compare with names is not very interesting and not very useful."

Mayweather picked to beat De La Hoya
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya and his rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. arrived at the MGM Grand here Wednesday amid the pomp and pandemonium befitting two of the biggest stars in the sport who are about to duke it out for the WBC super welterweight crown this Saturday (Sunday in Manila).
As of Wednesday, MySportsbook.com closed its book with Mayweather a favorite to defeat De La Hoya at -170 (a $100 bet wins $70), while De La Hoya is a +140 underdog (a $100 bet wins $140).
Mayweather arrived at about 11:30 a.m. on a big truck with his face and a big "World's Best Pound-for-Pound" sign scribbled across the vehicle. He was accompanied by his entourage made up of rappers and his training team.
A crowd of close to 3,000 eager fans packed the MGM Grand lobby, with their cameras in tow, all trying to vie for position to get a good angle at Mayweather, who is acknowledged as the world's best fighter pound-for-pound.
Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions vice-president, described the fan turnout as "amazing" and swore he had never seen anything quite like this event.
"The crowd was fantastic. Everybody was just too eager to see the two fighters," said ALA manager Michael Aldeguer, who was among those who waited at the lobby together with his ward Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista and AJ Banal.
De La Hoya made his own grand entrance at the hotel lobby at around 12:30 p.m. accompanied by GBP chief executive officer Richard Schaefer and trainer Freddie Roach.
The same group of fans who trooped to see Mayweather also lingered around to get a close look at De La Hoya, who has been secretly working out at a Las Vegas gym for days after arriving from his main training camp in Puerto Rico.
The golden boy then took part in a closed-door afternoon workout with Bautista and Banal. The two, along with Aldeguer and wife Christine, as well as an HBO crew were the only ones allowed inside the gym.
De La Hoya and Mayweather take part in today's final press conference before the official weigh-in this Friday.
Ring Magazine, the acknowledged bible of boxing, reported in its June 2007 issue that 12 out of 20 boxing experts it interviewed have favored Mayweather to defeat De la Hoya, with only 8 favoring the latter.
But Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao said in a recent interview with The Freeman's Emmanuel Villaruel that De La Hoya will win by unanimous decision over Mayweather.
