Leeds United fans lament 'ridiculous' exclusion of Jack Harrison from latest England squad

Leeds United fans have criticised Gareth Southgate's decision to leave out Jack Harrison of the latest England squad. The Three Lions are set to face matches against Italy and Germany as they look to avoid relegation from Nations League Group A3.

Harrison has enjoyed an excellent start to the season so far for Leeds with one goal and three assists in his opening six matches. The Leeds winger has also scored eight goals in each of the last two Premier League campaigns, with his numbers up there among England's wide options.

Southgate has opted against inclusion in favour of the likes of Jack Grealish and Jarrod Bowen, both of whom have failed to get off the mark in terms of goals or assists in the league so far. Here is what Leeds fans have been saying on the decision not to select Harrison.

@lufcThommo: "No Jack Harrison is harsh! Is there a more in form England winger?!"

@YeboahBelieveIt: "No English player has created more chances or more assists in the Premier League this season than Jack Harrison. Overlooked for the England squad."

@gafferdg: "Jack Harrison has best stats in the Prem so far this season and doesn't get a look in."

@MOTweets1919: "28 players in there and we still can't fit in Jack Harrison? Who can play LW and LWB in this system? Shame on you Gareth. Poor Jackie."

@JoeBlackburn42: "Jack Harrison vastly outperformed Jack Grealish in almost every metric thus far this season, so imagine my shock when Southgate picks the City player."

@JakeEdwardsMOT: "How is Jack Harrison not in the England squad? If Southgate was going off form he should've been involved."

@TuckerLUFC: "Grealish making the squad over Harrison, ridiculous."

@ginna10: "Pointless. Too many defenders and not enough game changers. Jack Harrison should have had a chance too."

@Payney_02: "Jack Harrison has more goal contributions than five of the forwards stated in this list. How has he not been picked?"

@whoisdougie: "Absolutely criminal that Jack Harrison didn't get an England call up."
