Of course we are at his mercy, but it wouldn't make any financial sense for him to asset strip us.

There's really only Periera and Johnstone who we could make any decent money on anyway this summer. Which is what £30m? £40m at most. Plus parachute payments.

We are an asset to him, which has value. If we got promoted back to the Prem and stayed there, his asset will be worth far more than if he was to take cash out of the club now. Its probably the main reason why he hasn't done that yet.

Its not impossible he asset strips us, but the wise financial plan would be for us to stay self sufficient and try to make it back to the Premier League. Its what I imagine he will do too.
