2023/24 James Garner

[Ivo]

Great performance. Wonder if he tried that little bit harder because he played for them the other season?

 

[dublinbluenose]

Absolutely outstanding today. He was everywhere and is superb in possession. Love him.

 

[allen]

Class act.

Captain material. Loved him bollocking Pickford for poor distribution, then playing the ball straight back to him - only for Pickford to send a pinpoint ball into midfield.

There aren’t many others in the squad that’d shout at Pickford, even fewer that would have their point instantly and demonstrably accepted by him.

 

[maccavennie]

Excellent today. Don't think he gave the ball away once and won every loose ball.

 

[edge]

Long time since I have seen an Everton player totally dictate a game of football.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Looking every inch the bargain for what we paid United

Yes, this is a great sign. A pro like Pickford - our best player - obviously has plenty of respect for Garner by that reaction - and probably knew he was right, too.

 

[Walken]

Shouts for who he reminds you of? Could be a number of box to box 1990's who could do a bit of everything

 

[zook]

Up there with the best displays he's put in for us.

 

[Victus]

Genuinely his best performance for us tonight, he was genuinely everywhere, also loved him having a go at Pickford and rightly so.

Good to see and Pickford looked sheepish afterwards. Shows that Garner cares

Obviously no where near the quality, but Roy Keane. I reckon he's got a temper simmering under that mop as well, told Pickford to do one.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

Liked that he was prepared to carry the ball forward a bit more than in recent times. He has the pace and the power to break the lines like that a few times a game.

 

[vinvinvin]

Breakout performance today. After so many years watching our midfielders bereft of confidenc & crabbing sideways, it’s a joy to watch one play with real tempo and confidence.

Reminds me of Joe Parkinson.

Mostly for the fact hes got an edge to him, great attitude and can both pass and tackle very well.

Hopefully the man utd game was a one off and we see consistency like hes shown this season more and more.

My motm and the commentators were saying how great he was all game. Stats popped up that he was 1st for passing, interceptions and a few other things
