Man United Urged To Recall Loan Star: 'They Need To Get Him Back Quick'

​Manchester United have been urged to recall James Garner following his impressive showing for Nottingham Forest against Leicester City in the FA Cup.

​Garner starred as Forest beat Leicester 4-1 to book their spot in the next round of the competition. 

His all-action display in the heart of midfield grabbed the attention of Martin Keown, whose told Man United to bring him back to Old Trafford. 

Garner, 20, played a big role in Forest's opener against Leicester and set up his side's third goal with a brilliant corner kick.

Keown, who was calling the game on Sunday, liked what he saw - in particular his quality deliver from set-pieces. 

On BBC Sport, the former Arsenal defender said: "Again, set-piece, the ball in from Garner is an absolute beauty, look at the whip on that.

"You can’t underestimate the quality that Garner is putting into this box. He’s on loan from Manchester United - they need to be thinking about getting him back there quickly!"

Of course, Man United have struggled from set-pieces and have yet to score a goal from a corner kick this season. 

Asked if United fans should be encouraged by Garner's development at Forest, Keown replied: "I do. I like the way he’s developing, growing as a player.

"Second year here on loan, you can see the development. He’s certainly playing with a lot more confidence right now."

Garner has been at Forest since the second half of last season, scoring four goals in 20 appearances. 

And he's continued to enhance his reputation this term, featuring in 27 games in all competitions.
