James Garner is Everton's Bronze Creator, serving as the technical engine in the heart of the Toffees' midfield. A winner of the UEFA U21 Championship with two career trophies already secured, Garner has evolved from a Manchester United prospect into a foundational Premier League starter since his move to Merseyside.

Across 24 appearances this season, Garner has logged a robust 2,154 minutes, proving his reliability over a full campaign. While his recent output suggests he is searching for rhythm during a quiet spell, his Passing rating of 75 highlights his role as a primary distributor. His profile is uniquely balanced by a silver WALL badge, earned through a tenacious 3.1 tackles per 90 minutes. Though his Intensity has dipped in recent weeks, a 74 skills rating ensures he remains a constant threat to provide the decisive ball when the Balance of a match is on the line.

Currently valued at €22M with a rising trend, Garner’s stock continues to grow. His development into a consistent midfield general will be crucial for Everton as they navigate high-Stakes fixtures in the seasons to come.
