2025/26 James Garner

[windymiller]

Fair dues to Jimmy G. I have to confess, I was one of those posters last year who was a bit lukewarm on the lad and couldn't quite see what others did in terms of his potential but he's really stepped up this season and fully deserves his call up. It's a shame it's a 35 man(!) squad, as that may hinder his opportunity to get a decent amount of game time in these two matches but I'm sure he'll get some and he must be made up that he's still in the conversation for the world cup.

Reliable and so underrated I think. Works hard, makes very few mistakes, and lets face it, in knock out competition one mistake can prove fatal. Over the moon for him.

Moyes has turned him into a rolls royce of a midfielder

 

[chippy1722]

He owes it all to our current manager and coaches, otherwise he’d still be a headless chicken. Moyes doing what he done first time around and improving players others couldn’t.

13/5 to make the squad with the bookies

Well in Jimmy, fantastic all round footballer. Thank you Kevin Thelwell.

 

[Cels]

Can we just praise the player for once, not the manager..

This is the Garner Thread..

Do not play your best cm at full back

We have to say all in all, Kev build a pretty good squad with the money used.

I know Rangers didn't go well, but would have been keen to seen what he'd have done last summer.

Great through pass for the goal. I dont think he's been great that half though.

Russel Martin is what happened to Rangers. Garner was £12ish wasn’t he? That is looking like incredible business

That pass for the goal summed up why he got the England call up, brilliant vision

He should have gotten Röhl straight away

He was somewhere around that, I guess the only non-sense transfer was Chermiti under Thelwell, as we spent 15m from a limited budget for a perspective player that was nowhere near ready.

Excellent again
