Leeds fans react as Patrick Bamford and Luke Ayling not named in England squad

The latest England squad has been announced.

Leeds United fans are absolutely furious with Gareth Southgate’s decision to leave out Patrick Bamford for their upcoming games.

The Three Lions are set begin their qualifying campaign for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar in the closing days of March. They begin by welcoming San Marino to Wembley, before a trip to Albania. Finally, they’ll face Poland at home.

David Anderson of The Mirror claimed yesterday that Southgate is considering giving Bamford his senior national team debut.

Luke Ayling was also under consideration, with Anderson claiming that Southgate is impressed by the right-back.
