Some Leeds United fans on social media are far from happy after Jack Harrison was left out of England’s provisional 33-man squad ahead of the European Championships.

The winger has been excellent for Leeds this season and given England’s lack of left-footed wide players, it would have made sense for Southgate to offer him an opportunity at this tournament.

Sadly for Harrison, it wasn’t to be this time around, and Leeds supporters had plenty to say about Southgate’s snub,

To be fair, we can understand why. Harrison not making the 26-man squad would be understandable, but after such a fantastic season, one would have to imagine that he’d have been given a spot in the 33 name longlist.

Whether or not Harrison is called up in the future remains to be seen, but it’s clear that Leeds supporters believe he should have been selected for the Euros.
