Poyet will be leaving I reckon so that leaves us with Cousins. He benefits from having someone a bit more defense minded alongside him so he can get forward.
There's no chance that Cousins will be used as an attacking midfielder if Poyet leaves, as he's naturally defensive. Cousins would take Poyet's position.
Distel Zola is a defensive midfielder. We've already got Cousins & Poyet who play in that role, so maybe this suggests that one will be leaving.
Frankly it would be foolish to assume we can keep hold of two highly rated, very promising young players with the FFP rules and homegrown quotas etc. It's possible that losing one lets us keep the other but that would still leave us short.

I would be devastated but not surprised if poyet leaves as hes out of contract but i would be surprised if either of them were sold at this point, didn't Richard Murray say that we weren't under financial pressure so we would wait until players reach their full transfer value before considering selling, surely RD would wait a few good years with a young player before selling at least to maximise profit. And although i don't know the finances you'd think that letting go all those players must have reduced the wage bill considerable so you'd hope FFP shouldn't be a problem too much.
FFP isn't the issue with Poyet unfortunately. Simply that he's out of contact and whatever happens is his choice and not ours. Hopefully we show some intent quickly with signings and persuade him to stay at least another year or two.

It's not really just Poyet's decision though is it? If the offers crap then he can't be expected to take it!

Does mean that due to his age we get some sort of money though doesn't it? Ends up as 'compensation' or something I thought, could be wrong. Seem to remember a similar situation when Jenkinson went to Arsenal.

If Diego does leave then the fee we will receive is already established. 400k. A pittance to his true value. I hope he does the right thing and signs so that we can pick up a decent fee like Jonjo did.
