Dropping Whitaker was another strange decision saturday after

I felt he had had his best game of the season against Charlton. I do think that Martin is slightly the better right back (defensively at least) but I thought it a strange decision by Adams to move Martin back out and bring that carthorse Hoiveld in at CB again. I can only assume that Adams thought we needed a more mobile CB against Charlton whereas Rotherham have a tall man up front so needed the extra height but i do worry a bit about going into games against the better teams with Turner and Hoiveld at CB because they get done by relatively simple balls over the top. Despite not wanting Martin at CB earlier in the season I would therefore prefer for us to stick with it until Bennett is fit because at least Martin is more mobile and can sweep behind Turner when needed.
