Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.35 goal contributions per 90 (0.21 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 30.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 4.6, Garner carries the 70th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the League Two of 70. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.35 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
