Arsenal fans can't believe what Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have done to Bukayo Saka

Arsenal fans are furious with Sky Sports pundits Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher.

The former Premier League stars made a bold suggestion of their 23-man England squad for the Euros this summer as part of Monday Night Football.

And much of it, fans would agree with given the majority of the squad more or less picks itself at this point, but Gunners fans are raging over one omission, in particular.

Arsenal starlet Bukayo Saka, who has been excellent this season, was not included in the suggested squad with Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Jack Grealish, Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood making up the forwards.

Saka has been the shining light of Arsenal's season so far this term, scoring six and assisting seven to date in 35 appearances across all competitions.

The 19-year-old was called up for England during the March internationals, showing he is a part of Gareth Southgate's plans in some form, but he did have to pull out through injury.

Whether he makes the final cut for the Euros remains to be seen, particularly with Arsenal's struggles in the Premier League, but Gunners fans would certainly expect Saka to be included in Southgate's squad this summer, and that's shown in some of the backlash towards Carragher and Neville.

Here's how some fans reacted on Twitter.

@Lykaawilss - Gary Neville is taking mason Greenwood, Phillips and james but not bukayo saka Pfftttt.

@Max_Rad1 - "Neville and Carra are the best in the game as pundits but neither of them picking Sancho or Saka seems ridiculous to me."

@Pepe19Jackson - "Neville actually saying Greenwood, completely overlooking Saka and Sancho. Joker."

ConermoKeeffe - "No Bukayo Saka in either Gary Neville's or Jamie Carragher's England squads for the Euros! Ah here."

@Hummzak - "Ofc Gary Neville who is completely not biased at all would take Greenwood in the England Squad over Saka/Sancho/Ings."

@AFCWajaday - "This guy Neville @GNev2 been in full throttle recency bias and club bias today. Greenwood scored 5 goals all season. 2 in the league and wants to take him ahead of Sancho & Saka. SMH punditry is on the floor."

@TomL1904 - "Apparently, Gary Neville is including Eric Dier, James Ward-Prowse in his Euros squad and taking Greenwood over Saka* and Sancho and we're supposed to take this guy's opinion seriously?"
