I wonder what name was on the contract?

Good signing that, been great this season.

Our most improved player for sure.

Think he has scope to get better due to age.

Even if he doesn't, this contract should ensure we make a profit on the £15M we paid for him.

This new contract is win win.

Potentially could've dragged down the better vibes a bit to have a player run down a contract, although it's a more common tactic these days.

Anyway, such a versatile player and one who has really stepped up this season. Pleased to have it done.

Ndiaye contract bump next would be nice.

Well deserved

Can’t argue with that.

He has the technical ability to be more expansive with his passing, let’s hope his vision and decision-making catch up.

Could access an even higher level if he starts using the ball better from deep.

Tackles maybe but if anything, it's a hindrance at interceptions.

Great news, glad to see this happen, even though I’ve seen it three hours after posting!

Even with my reservations about his quality, I've acknowledged he's had an excellent season and considering Dyche has got Elliott Anderson looking like an average plodder then perhaps I'm doing Garner a disservice based on previous performances.

Yeah, willing to judge him on this season alone considering how much better a lot of players have looked under someone who actually coaches players.

He’s probably taking Anderson’s place in the team for the World Cup at this rate.

Having a midfielder doing his work off the ball who has that occasional bit of quality to get a goal is valuable so fair play to him.

Always have slight reservations when a player massively improves in the last year of their contract though.

Yeah so glad he has signed! Good to get it wrapped up.
