Graham Potter has played down the need to sign a replacement for Ben White.
The England defender has completed his £50 million switch to Arsenal.
Fellow defenders Lewis Dunk and Adam Webster missed today’s 3-1 win at Luton but are expected to face Getafe next Saturday.
Head coach Potter said: “I think we have got enough competition in that area.
“We have got enough good players. We can be flexible with how we set up.
“You can’t replace a £50 million player, you have to look to be creative with solutions within the squad.
“But we are in a good place now.”

Dan Burn limped out of the action in the second half but Potter said the problem did not appear serious.
He added: “I think his foot got stuck in the turf.
“We err on the side of caution at this stage.”
Danny Welbeck missed the game due to a hamstring concern.
