Garner to Everton

But £15m for Garner is about right.

Not sure how spending £220 million on players we desperately need is a farce tbh and I’m the pessimistic one

We should be used to all the noise now and just be happy that we’re making positive steps. Garner was never going to make it here.

It has for people who get caught up in paper bullshit


Why isn't frenkie here yet

Vedders out here making me agree with bellers

“farce noun (SITUATION)
: [ C ]
a ridiculous situation or event, or something considered a waste of time”

Lok nailing it as per.

Bear in mind that he's played for Forest for the last two years and they aren't signing him. They have signed 17 other players though.

Don’t think you should be calling anyone else massive buddy. Stick to what you’re good at and jog on whilst pretending you’re “itk” you illiterate gobshite.

good place this

Utter farce.....

Garner isn't good enough for man United and never will be....

15 million is decent for him. Ten hag will know midfielders , there’s no point keeping him and letting him go in a free or worse offering him a new deal down the line when he has played less than 10 matches for the club.

If the players aren’t good enough cut your losses and bin them. 15 million is a decent amount . We know the recruitment isn’t the best but it’s a start. It’s going to take some time (and the right direction) to get it done.

Sadly this. I had high hopes but watched him a fair few times last season for forest and while he's got a lovely dead ball and likes a tackle, he didn't stand out that much. That Welsh lad Johnson was way more impressive. The suggestion that Garner had an outstanding season in the Championship simply isn't true.

Isn't he a scouser anyway? best move for him.

Worse he's a wool, Birkenhead....

Good riddance.

This. He was alright when I saw him last season tbf, nothing special though. Whenever he’s played for United, albeit very few occasions, he’s looked miles away.

We overhype these kids because we’re so desperate for them to come good. There’s nothing quite like unearthing a talent and having them break through, so we hang on any signs we can.

If he wasn’t on loan to Forest and you saw him playing for them, you wouldn’t notice him and certainly wouldn’t want him.

If he can’t break ahead of mcfred then he’s not good enough. There’s one thing trying to get into a CM of scholes and carrick, another not breaking into a central midfield that doesn’t exist.

The only “surprise” would be ETH is talking about numbers and we now have three CMs going into the season? Mcfred and Casemiro.

Two injuries and they are £#%&!ed. I don’t think he fancies VDB as a CM and Eriksen is limited there, much better forward. Mejbri has also gone on loan. Either he trusts the fitness of the current midfield or we may get to see more of savage /iqbal in the Europa league

And not a ‘proper’ scouser.

I haven't really seen enough of him to know whether he is stand out good or not. If not, then £15m isn't bad for a 21yo lad who may well end up not playing first team for utd and I would have thought ETH has a good look and decided not.

Good luck to him, hope he does well. The league used to be full of homegrowns who couldn't quite cut it at utd, which is actually a sign of the strength of the football club.

15m is about 5m to much. He's a punt a best. From what I've seen he's more suited to the championship than PL.


Good business.
