Nottingham Forest fans are raving over Manchester United loanee James Garner after his recent performances this season.
On Saturday, he was brilliant as Forest defeated Hull City 2-1 at the City Ground, as Garner came up against fellow United loanee Di-Shon Bernard.

Garner arrived on loan at Forest back in August, having already spent the second half of last season at the club. During that spell he made 20 appearances and scored four goals, so the fans welcomed him with open arms.
It took Garner some time to rediscover his mojo, but the youngster is back to his best again.
Footage has emerged from Saturday’s win over Hull City and you can see by the reactions on Twitter that Garner is a big hit with the fans at Forest.

Been superb the last 4/5 games, just got back into the groove of last season after a tough start to the season. (also love that he’s from Birkenhead!)

Always was behind him. When you see a good footballer you know and back him.
There can’t be many at United academy from there and vice-versa. 😄

He has been class since returning to the team.
Snapping into tackles, covering every blade of grass. Always finds time on the ball. Garner and Colback compliment each other really well.— Matthew Fletcher (@redfletch83) December 20, 2021
The video shows the United man passing the ball, making tackles and interceptions in what was probably his best performance of the season.
