2022/23 James Garner

[4737carlin]

Possibly the best signing for a while, credit to the DOF, another one he got spot on

 

[Nymzee]

Given his quality, it seems really unusual that Forest didn’t appear to want to make his signing permanent given how many players they bought.

I think that was United's fault

Did somebody just say he hasn't got the physique for central midfield? I thought I saw it and now the comment seems to have gone. Working on the assumption that the poster concerned edited his post, that was probably wise. Garner is 6'1" and over12 stones, he's no shrinking violet either and well able to survive in central midfield.

Impress by his tenacity and hardworking mindset. Pleasantly surprise. Very similar to Paul Scholes all round ability.

Whoa steady on ,I hope you are right though .

That is a cringeworthy leap of imagination. Scholes was an incredibly good player. Garner has shown a few glimpses of potential to be pretty useful.

Definitely not that level yet but in the same mould.

I don't think Outtara beat him once yesterday

The same ouattara who chose them over us!

 

[Connor]

Player, by the way

 

[Jacob]

We've got ourselves a proper footballer there. He had a great game yesterday, gave his all and, for a young fella, wasnt overawed by the drama of the match. The contrast hit me when one of the Sky cameras scanned the players area and focussed on Tom Davies tittering and joshing with DCL there.

Cheers Arch, I've replied to him in there, had myself worried there I thought I'd imagined reading it.

 

[Brigadier2]

Unbelievable performance considering he's never played there before.

They did but wanted the deal done quickly , Man U were waiting on the signing of one of their bigger names, can’t remember who before allowing him to leave. Forest moved onto other targets and when Man U expressed that they were willing to let him leave we stepped in. Forest fans were gutted they didn’t get him permanently.
