Vincent Kompany is keen to see Manchester City continue buying this month.
"Many players have the same opinion as me on this," Kompany told The Independent.
"I've always aimed to play for teams in Europe that would go for trophies every year and if you play for one of those clubs - Chelsea, Arsenal, United, Liverpool, Madrid - there are always going to be better players coming in for your spot.
"That's just natural selection; part of playing for a bigger club, and if it's difficult, it's no big deal. You go on with your life.
"No one can disagree that [Didier] Drogba must have been the best striker in the Premier League for a couple of years now but still Chelsea have searched for another striker. [Andrei] Shevchenko came in, [Nicolas] Anelka came in but it doesn't mean Chelsea want to get rid of him.
"But it does mean it's a way to make the team better. Bring in everybody for me, as long as the team benefits. I absolutely believe there should be no problem with that."
