Jack Harrison struggled for Leeds United this afternoon.

Jack Harrison of Leeds United stands dejected during the Sky Bet Championship match between Leeds United and Blackburn Rovers at Elland Road on December 26, 2018 in Leeds, England.

Some Leeds United fans on Twitter aren’t pleased with Marcelo Bielsa’s refusal to take Jack Harrison off today.

Harrison, on loan at Leeds from Manchester City, started and finished the game as Bielsa’s side drew 1-1 away to Middlesbrough at the Riverside.

Despite having 90 minutes in which to make an impact, the 22-year-old struggled and some fans of the West Yorkshire side were crying out for the Argentine to bring him off.

Here’s their reaction:

It must be noted that Harrison made a potentially goal-saving intervention in the seventh minute of additional time, which proved massive.

Some minutes later, United went and grabbed a last-gasp equaliser through Kalvin Phillips. In doing so, Leeds moved top of the Championship for 24 hours at least, with Norwich City facing Ipswich tomorrow.

Harrison is clearly a good footballer, but Leeds fans’ frustrations are valid. He didn’t do a hell of a lot today before the 97th minute and time will tell whether Bielsa perserveres or drops him next time around.
