Ah here it is. Thought there was a thread somewhere.

Did great tonight. I think he needs to be playing week in week out, and that might not be the case once everyone is back.

Really promising. Loved the outside of the right boot stuff in the first half. Went out of it second half but they all did.

Just a quality player who'll only get better.

Stick Garner at RB for the rest of the season and get this lad in the middle next to Gana and behind KDH.

Key point for me

Looked promising, didn't do that much though in a game crying out for someone to produce something.

I think he did well considering that his closest options on that right-hand side were McNeil and O’Brien. Hard to find any penetrative passing opportunities or shots in that triangle.

That outside of the boot cross for Barry just needed to be a little higher for the perfect welcome to the PL moment. Oh well.

Obviously we're more excited about his full potential than expecting him to run games at 18 years old. Hes 8 or 9 years away from his prime and he looks comfortable at this level, which is really impressive. We're allowed to be excited about that.

Still think he is better at Preston Moyes won’t move garner from beside gana when they are back so he will be restricted in appearances

He'll keep him past January as he'll be worried KDH will take longer to get up to speed/have a recurrence and one of Garner/Tim picks up an injury as well.

Probably would love to send him back but Rohl hasn't stood out so far and if we can't bring any more defenders in then Garner is first on the list to slot in at full back if we need someone there.

Couldn’t ask for much more for his first start in the premier league at 19.

Little glimpses of a decent three in midfield, not sure if they were alternating or if Moyes switched it but him and Tim kept taking it in turns to pop up in the ten in the first half and it was very encouraging
