On 2 August 2007, Garrido signed for Manchester City for £1.5m (€2.2 million),[3] on a four-year contract.[4][5] He made his debut on 11 August against West Ham United. Garrido played a part in the most successful Premiership start in the club's history with four victories and four clean sheets from the opening six games. But he was replaced by Michael Ball just before Christmas. His team eventually ended in the ninth place in the league and qualified for the UEFA Cup through fairplay.

Garrido scored his first goal for City direct from a free kick against Liverpool in their 3–2 loss on 5 October 2008.[6] His second season with City was more disappointing than the first, as he only made 13 league appearances, 14 less than the previous season. The following summer he took part in the Vodacom Challenge appearing in a game against Kaizer Chiefs and as an unused substitute against Celtic. During his third season in England, Garrido found it increasingly hard to find a place in the first team squad. In the Manchester derby, in which United won 4–3, Garrido, as an unused substitute in the match, was struck on the head by a coin as he headed down the tunnel at half-time. After the match, Garrido told Daily Mail, making accusation to United, for causing trouble and described the club's action as 'climate of hostility'.[7] However, this changed when Roberto Mancini replaced Mark Hughes as City manager, he came off the bench against Stoke City on 26 December to gain only his first league appearance of the 2009–10 season, a few days later he came off the bench for Stephen Ireland against Wolverhampton Wanderers and scored a freekick.[8]

After leaving Manchester City, Garrido says he has no feud with Mancini - who sold him in 2010 - and say Mancini was grateful to him when he gave him a chance to play in the first team.[9]

On 25 November 2010, when he made his scored his first goal, in the fourth round of Coppa Italia match, in a 3–0 win against AlbinoLeffe. Shortly making his debut, Garrido soon suffered an Achilles tendon problems. On 6 March 2011, he made his return, coming on as a substitute in a late minute, as Lazio beat Palermo 2–0. Under manager Edoardo Reja, Garrido find it diffiuclt to make it to the first team, due to injuries and would be often used in first team ins and out in his first season.[11]

The next season, Garrido was barely used for the club in the first half of the season, due to muscular problems, at first, and then Strain in mid-March. Garrido made his first appearance, making his first start, of the season, as Lazio lose 3–2 against Genoa on 5 February 2012.

In a match against Manchester United on 17 November, Garrido assisted Anthony Pilkington, crossing the ball to him for a header, giving Norwich City a 1–0 win.[15] In late December, Garrido stated he would like to stay at Norwich.[16] On 14 May 2013, Norwich announced they had agreed to sign Garrido on a permanent deal to join the club from 1 July on a two-year contract, with an option for another year.[17]
