For what it’s worth I think Garner is not as good as Anderson or Wharton and probably should have spent the end of the season at Right Back.

But if we’re praising Iraola for what he’s done to improve a high intensity box to box midfielder then let’s not forget how much people have raved about “Jimmy G” this season - and give some of that credit to Moyes.

The job Iraola has done with Alex Scott is remarkable. My hot take, Scott is a better all round midfielder than Wharton

And coach them to levels that make them realistic targets for elite clubs.

Completely different types of midfielders - Irish Paul May 20, 2026, 4:55 pm
Weird Tarkowski didn't - Ezy May 20, 2026, 3:46 pm
- so it's Tarkowski who's the donkey now, not Keane? nt - aje May 20, 2026, 3:57 pm
  - Keane has performed better than Tarks this season. - Ezy May 20, 2026, 4:30 pm
    - so give Moyes some credit! - aje May 20, 2026, 4:39 pm
      - I think Moyes would be quite happy to see if O'Brien is good enough at CB - Jonathan Gard May 20, 2026, 4:51 pm
        
        Branthwaite and O’Brien have the potential to be an outstanding CB partnership - Irish Paul May 20, 2026, 5:01 pm
        
        Absolutely agree - Jonathan Gard May 20, 2026, 5:50 pm
        
        O'Brien can't pass, which is the biggest problem with him playing RB - Ste Daley* May 20, 2026, 5:42 pm
        
        O’Brien CAN pass. He plays as a centre back for Ireland - Irish Paul May 20, 2026, 10:13 pm
        
        there's the issue though Moyes would rather him struggle at RB than at CB. nt - aje May 20, 2026, 5:52 pm
