Hessenthaler's experience, energy and commitment is legendary - and it is hoped his return to the side might add a much-needed spark to the team's ailing midfield.
In the last 12 months, we've seen Hessenthaler lose his discipline on the pitch as the pressure of being a player/manager was clearly taking its toll. More recently, Hessenthaler has taken a back seat from playing, deciding it was better to concentrate on managerial matters as Gills run of poor form continued.
Gorman's arrival will hopefully help relieve Hessenthaler of the pressure he's clearly been under in recent months - leaving the 39-year-old to concentrate on rolling back the years on the pitch as the Gills bid to move up the table.
