2025/26 James Garner

[duncs pigeon]

Playing well tbf and consistently well. Would be good to see if he could do it at an interntional level, dont think he will be selected though.

About England?

We dont want Garner have his head turned by that lot.

Little old Everton have a player deemed to be good enough to play for England. Script is well written that once amongst the elite players from elite clubs, he's as good as gone.
We need to be one of those elite clubs.

Anderson will go on to play for an elite club regularly and have a top career.

He's a central midfielder still trying to play football properly in a Sean Dyche side, he's got to get out of there ASAP.

Or he could just hang tight and wait for Marinakis to sack him. If the results don't pick up for Dyche I could see that happening in the next couple of months.

Different for GKs.

GK don’t have their head turned??? Is that because they are already mad as a box of frogs

I think talking with players like Grealish, who desperately wants to get back into the England squad and is clearly loving playing every week rather than languishing on City’s bench, would stop any head turning tbh.

All of the so called “big 6 clubs” have had their recent issues, the rest of the pack are a lot closer and it seems less of a barrier to have to be at one of the 6 to get into the England team these days.

Agreed. What Villa has done has got to be making a lot of players think - and Villa have been down and back up fairly recently.

And Forest, Brighton, etc have been within punching distance of the CL spots. Look at Sunderland this season.

We're not Barcelona. But with Everton's status, the rabid fanbase, the new stadium, etc. - assuming the money is good enough, if the club can continue to show growth, I think it's a close call for a very good player, who would be a rotation player at City or Arsenal, but would be a steady starter and maybe a talisman at Everton.

Probably. He'll still need to move on, too good for Forest. Probably end up at Man City.

Anyway, James Garner had a great game.

The current rumours are with United, a club he’d still have contacts at and tbh all doesn’t seem well behind the scenes. Amorin doesn’t look like a particularly fun manager to play for or very secure in his job either.

Traditionally England players have been pretty much non-elite club GKs. We've slipped out of the elite, of course.

If I'm a player in talks with Utd over a move the first question I'm asking is not about money it's about what is going on with the manager.
