 Welcome to Trophy TV. Everton have made another signing. It is James Garner from Manchester United, the midfielder who spent last season on the Nottingham Forest. Everton got him in, 21-year-old. Another midfielder. Ffarrer for Stee, got Stee Kelly here. So he's happy because he's got another wider lead in the Everton squad. But now Stee, obviously another reinforcement in midfield for Everton, you know, to go with, you know, I'm a doer manner and just a garner guy. And obviously James Garner in now. So I mean, what have you made of this one? Yeah, it's come out now. Obviously there was talk a couple of weeks ago that we were looking at him and I suppose it's always that easy link to make isn't it being obviously a localish lad and obviously being a man United and obviously Nottingham Forest were very interested in him as well. But I think it's a good sign. See, it's now a good mix of midfielders that we've got. We've gone from probably having one of the worst midfielders in the league to having options, which is exactly what we've wanted for a long time. So, yeah, I think it's, I don't think you're coming in, be a first team player straight away. I think you'll have to buy this time. But it's another, it's a good squad player for now until he builds his fitness up as we were just talking and he didn't really have a pre-season at Man United, very interrupted within your ease and stuff like that as well. So, yeah, it'll be interesting. He's come with a bit of a reputation man. United fans don't seem to be very happy that he's leaving, which is a good sign as well. And hopefully he can work under probably one of the best midfielders of all time in the Premier League as well and help them as well. Yeah, I mean, he was on loan obviously a forest last year, played over 40 times for them. I think four goals and 80 assists. Good on set place. Yeah. We know that, you know, get the balls into dangerous areas. You can create chances as well, which is not something that will massively bless within midfield. Like I said, he's got goals. Defensively, he's all right, but I think he needs to improve that side of his game. But he is mobile, you know. He's quite good on the ball. He's got moves on and on the pitch quite well. And he's 21 years of age. And that to me is a big thing as well because you've obviously got more experienced midfield players in there and you're getting this, you're coming through, younger players coming through as well. It's a nice blend between the two. And like you just said, they give Frank Lampard options and I think we saw certainly against Leeds that the three in midfield and he spoke about it afterwards maybe that's kind of more how he wants to go. So having someone like this who is mobile and can get it on a pitch and is decent on the ball, does give him the options, like you said, doesn't it? Yeah, and it's something we've been on many times of not having replacements for players who are getting older and obviously many times when we sport Alan we probably should have had a player to replace Alan. It looks like Felwell and Frank Lampard have addressed that and you can see they're trying to address it in other positions as well. It's only a positive and it's good because the age, obviously we were looking about probably a year and a half ago but the average age, the average age the squad was looking a bit on the older side where if you're looking at it now it's starting to, the average age has been brought and I understand eventually when they go on a deal it might look like it brings it up again but that's just one player so I think you've got to have options and that's something we've just never had in that position for a long time really even going back to Moses days we've never really had, we've never blessed with loads of centre midfielders but it's good to have those options that if one player goes out it doesn't mean you're having to play a player out of position or a player who's not comfortable in that position so if we're going to play a three and Alex will be picks up a knock at least we can bring a decorian or a James Garner in the good thing with James Garner, I don't think he's actually fine there's natural position in that midfield yet a lot of people are unsure whether he's an eight, or a ten, or a six like I've seen him at Forest team I've seen people say he's more of a six I've seen more of a eight ten at Forest because he was getting forward driving into the box set pieces, crosses it'll be interesting to see what type of player everyone will mould them into as well in regards to position wise obviously if you look at the Drisha Garner guy coming in he probably will be the six and then you look at Amadu Ounana who can play there obviously he was very good at leading that but he's got the attributes he should be able to go box to box getting on a pitch Alex will be sanding a two in there but I think he's more comfortable in a three but does so much running and can travel with the ball so you look at him and think well because we do have those different options now he could come in for any of those positions and like you said he's not necessarily just one one position he can have that mix it's when he won a great aid and obviously it might put a bit of a question mark over the likes of Tom Davies and maybe even someone like Lewis Warrington who was just a little bit younger going it's my pathway but right now we can't look at that and we've got to look at what we can do and it's up to those players to improve their game to be considered as well You mentioned Lewis Warrington you've got Tom Davies and Alan who are coming to the end of their deals at the moment Tom Davies doesn't sign the new deal Warrington might be looking at Tom Davies' spot for next season in the midfield so I think for Lewis Warrington and other players it shows that the club are invested in giving younger lads a chance as well so it's down to them really to make their way into the squad or into the team and I imagine some of those players might get a loan as well but yeah I think it's a good sign it's a bit of a low risk sign at the end of the day he's English, he's young he's coming with a bit of he's coming with a lot of potential as well it's really from his point of view and obviously from Everton's point of view it's down to us to try and mould him into that player so if the club, the manager and the player can do the right things there's no reason why I don't know in three, four years time Man United out three come back and knock on on our door and we want to buy him back for 50 million or 60 million that's what's got to be the club's aim for these youngsters as well I think as fans we've got to be a bit realistic and say if they're going to become really good players they might not be in Everton four, four, five years time and that's a good thing because it means we're doing well and again you're right there it's a case of can we bring in more of these players with that and I know as fans we don't want to think of it like that we don't want to look and go and bring in players and then we get good and we sell them but you have to do it it's the way 40 years at the moment and it helps you if you're reinvesting in good players then you have more good players you rise and you continue to get better then hopefully there comes a time where you go why would we sell our players to you we've got players here we've got money coming into the club and everything else is improving and getting better and better we're too often in the past and that's why but where we are now in a situation where we haven't go to deadline day to get these deals done because we haven't got the money at the beginning of the window I think if you look at it as well we have to be realistic there's probably only three, four teams in the world who are going to keep every single one of the player for the rest of the careers and that's even very rare you go as far back as Cristiano Ronaldo man United you'll have probably the best team in the world to go to Real Madrid it's very rare so our job as a coaching staff is to meet James Garner into the best midfield that he can be and it's down to the player as well to get his head down and work and if I'm James Garner I want to be trying to force my way into that evidence that's down to the player to do to show the good application and every day show that he wants to work hard and I think from his point of view it's a great opportunity for him to play for another big club as well it's 21 years of age and play for two real big clubs there you go let's see what he does good luck to the lad come in and work hard there you go let's know what you think in the comments section be low on James Garner's move from Manchester United to Everton another midfield in the door for Everton extra competition for Frank Lampard who wanted to revamp Everton's midfield since last season and has certainly done it
