[LNB]"He has not been given the chance to show his worth this season in the Premiership and there's no denying that it seems like he is not the type of player Sam Allardyce is looking for.[LNB]"This has been a bad season at Blackburn for both Elrio and Benni - neither seem to be the kind of player that fits into the Blackburn system and both need to move on in January."[LNB]Van Heerden joined Blackburn on a free transfer from Club Brugge in the summer, but he has made just one substitute's appearance in the Carling Cup to date.[LNB]
