Don’t both of these graphs basically illustrate what I’ve said about him?
Quality off the ball
Anonymous on it

How many 6s are amazing on the ball in terms of forward play?
He's a defensive stat monster, reads the game great and moves the ball around well.
I think an upgrade on that costs you £70m+
I think our issues stem elsewhere not with Garner. Whomever we play alongside him tends not to be a good forward passer, and the full backs offer nothing.
Then our wingers aren't pacy.
So we can neither pass through a team, nor hit them quickly in transition.
Replacing Garner wouldn't rectify those issues.

Pretty much the same players as Elliot Anderson based on those graphs then.
Stick a ball playing midfielder next to him and we might be able to work on something.

Couldn’t care less about a player like garner playing through balls.
Nice if he does, doesn’t matter if he doesn’t.
