2025/26 James Garner


Drago said:
It's a lovely, crisp winters day. I had one earlier.

I think he's an average player. That doesn't mean I don't 'rate' him or think he's one of the best midfielders in the league either. The internet is full of people who can only see things in absolutes.

And this is why I say Garner is the most underappreciated player since Lukaku. I constantly heard him moaned about, called average, never given respect. Obviously you are entitled to your opinion, but calling him average is an insult. If you think hes average, you dont rate him.
 

Garner and KDH as our midfield pairing has to be future. For gods sake keep Garner away from RB spot and KDH away from the CAM spot.

They’re technically gifted whilst still being very capable defensively. They’re mobile and energetic which is the main thing, plus can contribute with goals from those deeper positions which is invaluable.

Tie Garner down to a long term contract and build on those 2 moving forward. We’ll be alright.

I've just been called a kopite because I don't think James Garner is one of the best midfielders in the league, personal attacks don't come much worse.

I didnt call you a kopite. I said you sound like one as you dont rate Garner.

Garner is probably the player of the (half) season and you dont rate him.

I'm not sure how an Evertonian could have this view. It makes no sense to me...

...so i gave you the opportunity to list down midfielders in his role from other teams in the league who you think outperformed him this season.

You elected not to do so.

"You don't rate him."

You keep repeating this because I disagree that he's one of the best players in the prem.

You've accused someone of being a kopite and a wum because they don't agree with you about James Garner. Put your device down and get out for a walk. The irony being, you're behaving exactly how a kopite does. Best in da werrrrld la.

Firstly, you aren't a mind reader so I'm not sure why you seem to think you can tell me an obtuse reason of why I'm doing something.

You posted you hope arguably our best player this season is not starting games for Everton in 2 years.

That is weird. You also have no interest to discuss or show why you hold this view.


Secondly and for the second time, no one accused you of being a kopite.

Thirdly what kind of arrogant belittling thing to say? Go and have a walk? Put your device down?

Then you bring up kopites again when you are on an Everton forum, dont like Everton players and dont want to discuss why.

You've already had another poster question you in the Iroegbunam thread.

Its rather peculiar.

There’s a lot of recency bias here coming off his best game of the season. He’s fine. If someone wants to be 30 or 40 or 50 million for him we need to weigh that properly.

I don’t think his ceiling is particularly high.

Guimaraes
Rice
Caicedo
Camara
Tierlemans
Gravenberch

Can you think of any other midfielders in similar roles who have outperformed him this season?

Garner is knocking on the door of that group.
