Our verdict on Garner
Chosen Esiwe
James Garner has started 7 of Everton's 8 league games this season and averages 85 minutes when he does. That is about as secure as a starting place gets. At £6.0m and owned by just 0.2% of managers, he is a genuine differential.
Over the last 30 days he has averaged 3.0 points a game, which puts him 49th out of 159 regular midfielders. He is comfortably in the top half. Underneath the points, his expected goal involvement of 0.13 per 90 minutes ranks 112th in the same group. His returns trail what his chances suggest, which often means better weeks are on the way. He also takes corners and indirect free kicks, which adds assist potential.
He costs exactly what he did at the start of the season.
Over the next five gameweeks he faces NEW (A), COV (H), BRE (A), LIV (H) and AVL (A). There is nothing there to be afraid of.
Every figure here comes from the official Fantasy Premier League data and refreshes as the week goes on. We judge minutes first, then form against others in the same position, price movement and the next five fixtures.
