LOSER ❌: JAMES GARNER
Again this feels harsh, especially considering Garner had just landed in Türkiye on holiday before being called up as an injury replacement.
But similar to Eze this is less about his performance(s) across the 67 minutes he played and more related to what others did.
A central midfield option who can cover right back, both areas England have needed to find depth in. But Scott's performances and Trent Alexander-Arnold's reintegration pose a long-term threat to Garner's repeated inclusion in squads. Additionally, Kobbie Mainoo and Tino Livramento are both players Tuchel looked to call-up again but had to pull out due to injury, and had they been included, well Garner would still be enjoying the Turkish sun.
Garner is a class act in midfield and granted his minutes for England have been limited, but it is difficult to see a scenario where leapfrogs at least 2 of Elliot Anderson, Declan Rice, Alex Scott, Kobbie Mainoo and even Nico O'Reilly to be regularly called up.
