    Does size matter (that much) when it comes to backer board?

    I've had to take up half of my floor tiles including the 9mm ply that was underneath. I'm wanting to replace it but am thinking about using a cement board/no more ply option instead. Would a 10mm option work if I used slightly less adhesive? Any help is appreciated.
