Manchester United starlet James Garner netted an absolute stunner for Nottingham Forest this afternoon during their 3-1 victory over QPR.
Garner, a Manchester United academy product who has been with the club since 2009, spent the first-half of the campaign on-loan with Watford, before departing, having failed to win round newly-appointed manager Xisco.

Nottingham Forest made their move and secured Garner’s services on a temporary basis, with the 20-year-old already having netted three goals for the club, including a quite sublime one this afternoon.
