We'll be fine, we have plenty of assets. We don't need a rebuild anyway, our squad is stacked for the championship even if we sell/release half of them.
We probably only need 3-4 players in depending on exactly who leaves.
For me this was always the big benefit and I think we've done well on that front. Set ourselves up nicely with a mixture of young players and championship level veterans. Plus two years of parachute payments to maintain a high wage bill.
I just hope the likes of Awoniyi, Niakhate, Mangala etc. don't get too big for their boots and bugger off somewhere else. Though having said that it's not like they've torn up the league so I'm not sure how many takers there'd be (not in England anyway).
Even if we do lose Johnson, providing we recruit a decent goalie (or decide to give Horvath a chance should Luton not get promoted) we should have the nucleus of a good squad.
