I agree, but having Hamer on the bench is a fat better option than Eccles or Allen and he can cover multiple positions, Dan Neil is open to the move but would rather stay in the NE mate, so could see him going to Middlesbrough tbh.
Today he's facing probably the fastest forward in the Championship, he hasn't got the pace (not that Thomas or Pitching would have kept up either), we'll get caught every time over the top.
I'd have been half tempted to either start MVE as CB and KKH at RB or play 3 at the back with MVE. Going to get absolutely torn apart by Armstrong with that honking donkey at CB. What are the odds on a Lats sending off?
