2022/23 James Garner

[Paul Rideout]

Good experience for Garner here up against Neto.

He needs to learn from these games against top players to put a mark down to start for the club in this role.

I hear Garner’s favourite player growing up was Ally McCoist.

thought he done ok overall, started a bit wobby but settled in to it. done a great tackle at the end to set england on the counter, but half a lung gordon was blowing and give it away

...and?

Up against a very good opponent today and eventually worked it out.

He's a quick learner and he's making it obvious now that he should be considered for Everton at RB.

Not a chance

 

[windymiller]

Not a right-back, he's a midfielder.

And Dave's fishing, I would encourage you not to bite.

Not a chance

Not a chance? He's already played RWB but RB is "not a chance"...despite the fact he plays there for his country and besides the fact he's stated he'll play at RB if that's what Dyche wants?

"Not a chance".

Lol.

Garner would be wasted at right-back.

Garner would be wasted at right-back.

Anyone who comes in and solves our long standing RB problem is not wasting his talent.

Personally, I'd rather we brought in a decent established Right-Back. Mind you, we've been wanting that for God knows how many seasons now.

I don’t believe @davek is fishing here.

If Garner is a more reliable and competent right back than injury plagued Patterson then it is a no brainer.

As long as we bring in a midfielder to replace him.

I wouldn't argue with that, tbh.

When Coleman retires next summer we'll definitley require one. Until then I'm happy enough with Coleman starting and Patterson / Garner filling in when the inevitable happens and Coleman is missing games through injury.

LB is the big defensive problem to solve now.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Nothing wrong with having a player who can play multiple positions

Lol.

He played 1 full game for us there due to the fact everyone was injured and Holgate/Godfrey are pure pony.

He's also played the majority of his U21s as a CM and only just played at RB on 3 games in this tournament as they've only got 1 RB in the squad...and is probably better on the ball.

Iwobi has played more league games at RB than Garner.

We need an actual RB that's fit. It should be Paterson/new RB as 1st choice battling it out, Coleman 2nd.

Garner just like Holgate and Godfrey are "no other options"

100% fishing
