Colin Montgomerie may want an increase in Ryder Cup wild cards, but he will have to convince the European Tour players' committee next Tuesday that it is the right thing to do.
Chairman Thomas Bjorn said: "We will listen to the captain and the arguments for it, but we are very much a committee that believes that just because we lose one match we don't need to panic."
Nick Faldo had only two picks for last year's clash, whereas opposite number Paul Azinger wanted and was given double that number so that current form came more into the make-up of his side.
The United States, underdogs without the injured Tiger Woods, won back the trophy and avoided a fourth successive defeat by a convincing five-point margin.
Bjorn added: "It's one of these things that some captains prefer not to pick anybody and some would like to pick the whole team.
"Monty's certainly not scared of wanting to do what he thinks is right.
"We will discuss it hard and the fortunate thing is that we have a lot of ex-Ryder Cup players on the committee.
"Monty will want something and if he gets it he will be happy, but if he doesn't he will accept it - I know that for a fact.
"I see both arguments, I really do. But we won't panic - we will discuss it and listen to arguments for and against."
