Nah, man. He needs the movement speed to escape and catch up to people.

The attack speed also helps with Phage procs in those situations where you're chasing and being kited.

It also helps with taking down towers if you decide to split push, which is something Garen can do surprisingly well in some situations.

What Garen doesn't need is a constant AS boost, from say, Zeal/Trinity Force, which is why Youmuu's works so well on him.
