He is a very much overpriced at this level but he could be a potentially good signing although I fail to see him working particularly well with Sears or Didz as a partnership.
Some of those Preston goals were phenomenal but coming into our side, which is one without much creativity with a midfield much weaker than last seasons as things stand (I know, that sounds mad to even think) I don't think we can expect Garner to be Murphy mk2. We have also lost our top goalscorers from the last 3 seasons now with the departures of Pittman, Murph and Lawrence so we are really going to have to find those goals from somewhere or we could quite realistically go down.
If you read between the lines of what Lawrenson and Butcher have said about him, both having watched him play a fair bit you can see that Garners an ideal partner for the goalscoring centre forward and at his best when plays off of him and not the goalscoring centre forward himself as such. Garners ideal partner could be someone like Daryl Murphy.
Does that mean we are chasing the new new Murph as well? Or are we thinking more radical and going into the new season with a front 3 (Sears, Garner and Didz?), with one in the middle and two supporting strikers playing off that player? I am doubtful but while we don't have much of a midfielder either way, I can see no harm in bypassing it altogether!

Is he overpriced? Murphy was sold for £3.5 million and was 33 at the time. Garner at less than £1 million seems about right in the current market IMO.
I genuinely hope that Garner is the first of 2 strikers coming in this summer though & I have a feeling that Cauley Woodrow might be the other striker to come in as well. We would then have a nice mixture of strikers that can play in a variety of ways and would give us plenty of options tactically. |  |

Controversially, I'm going to see him in a Town shirt before whinging like a girl.
I'll post my thoughts - positive or negative - after he's got a couple of games under his belt. |  |

You appear to have taken a wrong turn and ended up on the forum rather than the news comments. | |

It's 4.25 on Thursday 15 June and as far as we know, he hasn't signed for us yet! |  | | |

Think it's broadly the best we can hope for in our current state. Hope he does the biz. |  |

Exactly right, none of us really have any idea how he will do. You could do with dropping the casual sexism though. |  | | |

Has he even signed? I am behind this week on what is going on.
If we did not manage to get it over the line, would there be a board based backlash? |  | | |
