How many Crystal Palace players have been named in the England squad?
Southgate has now announced his provisional England squad for the Euros this summer and quite incredibly it includes four Palace players.
England have called up Dean Henderson, Adam Wharton, Eberechi Eze and Marc Guehi into the pre-tournament training squad which is more players than any other single club has.
Palace fans, however, have taken issue with Southgate despite the four names in the squad. This is due to the exclusion of Tyrick Mitchell, who many believe should be in the squad.
The reason is that he has been so impressive under Glasner, but also that England has a bit of a crisis at left-back. After his exclusion, fans have reacted.
Fans cannot believe Tyrick Mitchell has been excluded by Gareth Southgate
Despite Southgate calling four players from Palace into his provisional squad, fans aren’t appeased, with the notable exclusion of Mitchell.
One fan asked: “That’s amazing but what more can Mitchell do?”
This was soon followed by another admitting his surprise: “I assumed the 4th name was going to be Mitchell, really surprised at that tbh.”
“I’d have thought Tyrick Mitchell could have got a late call too with England’s left-back problems”, commented a third fan.
“Mitchell deserves it too”, added another.
This opinion was shared by another who questioned Southgate: “Tyrick Mitchell? Southgate just purposely ignoring a great player he could pick?”
A final fan wrote: “Tyrick Mitchell is really unlucky to miss out.”
