We've got 4 - but are doubling up on positions granted.

Whittaker and wisdom right back
Martin Bennett and bassong at CB
Olsson and Brady at left back

Elliott Bennett can also play as an emergency full back.

Wisdom can play centre back and Martin right back.

It would have to be quite the crisis, albeit we would be weakened at centre back should two be missing and wisdom standing in.
