Burnley manager Sean Dyche has explained that the Clarets need to be run in accordance to a strict business model.
The spending capabilities of Premier League teams have most certainly increased exponentially in recent years due to the large TV money pouring in but this does not mean that all top-flight clubs are able to spend mindlessly in the transfer market.
Dyche said: "We're one of the rare clubs who looks more like a business model than most, and it's sort of because it has to.
"The board here are not trying to keep it all back, they're saying the ongoing running of the club is as important as the here and now.
"We can't go here's £100million, go and spend it all. It doesn't always go well.
"There is a business angle and a football angle, and trying to combine the two is where it gets really tricky.
"The hand goes in the hat and we just hope there's another rabbit there."
