Rovers's January transfer needs

[SuperBrfc]

I wouldn't mind us signing Gardner-Hickman on a cheap deal. He has been better than I expected him to be. A decent player in the middle who works well alongside Tronstad. I'm probably in the minority on this, but I like the player and think he is more effective than Travis.

Got good workrate and mobility, and will grow into a decent Championship player. Lacks a lot, can't pass for one, but we're pretty desperate so I'd sign him as well if it's cheap enough and his wages aren't too daft.

I'd pigeon-holed him as a carthorse, journeyman-type we'd all forget about in a few years time, but he's actually surprised me with some little bits of skill here and there.

I can't figure out Gardner-Hickman, he never seems to do that much and yet when he's not on the field we seem to be overrun in midfield far more easily

He's a big downgrade on Travis for me. But I agree. I'd sign him on a cheap deal. He gets through a lot of work off the ball and can hold his own. He's one of the worst passing central midfielders I've seen in a while though.

Water carrier types are needed in this division, Travis for example, especially when your core strength as a team is supposed to be work rate and intensity to make up for not being able to pay for flair.

So someone like him has a bit of potential in that respect and he seems to like being here and being involved.

Only makes sense if he's cheap though.

Think of the sell on value!
