Leeds United Winger Jack Harrison Comes Off the Bench for Everton in Thrilling Merseyside Derby Draw
In a captivating Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, Leeds United winger Jack Harrison made an appearance for Everton, coming off the bench as the Toffees secured a late draw against fierce rivals Liverpool.
Everton’s manager, David Moyes, continued to steer his team in a positive direction, with the game proving to be an incredibly topsy-turvy affair in front of a raucous Toffees crowd.
Everton took an early lead through Beto, but Mo Salah soon equalized and then assisted Alexis Mac Allister to put Liverpool 2-1 up. However, James Tarkowski’s 98th-minute goal ensured a dramatic draw, leading to a lengthy VAR check and the dismissal of Abdoulaye Doucoure and Curtis Jones.
Harrison, who is on loan from Leeds United, came on as a substitute in the 25th minute, replacing Iliman Ndiaye. Despite the impressive result, Everton fans have been vocal about their frustrations with the Leeds loanee’s performances this season.

Everton fans have been vocal in their criticism of Harrison, with some even suggesting that the club should cancel his loan and send him back to Leeds. This is not the first time Everton supporters have voiced their frustration with the 28-year-old winger.
In a recent 0-0 draw against Chelsea, Everton fans questioned Harrison’s performance and urged his Leeds loan to be terminated. There were even reports in January that the Toffees were considering canceling Harrison’s loan, with Fulham reportedly interested in taking him on board.

Despite the late draw against Liverpool, Everton fans were not impressed with Harrison’s performance, with one fan simply stating “Jack Harrison is not it” and another suggesting “is there a way we can send him back mid-season”.
Another supporter went as far as describing Harrison as “genuinely awful” and said he “loses the ball constantly”. It’s clear that Everton fans are not keen on the idea of signing the Leeds loanee permanently at the end of the current season.
However, local media outlets like the Liverpool Echo and Liverpool World have been more positive in their assessment of Harrison’s performance, with the latter giving him a rating of 7/10 and stating that he “came alive after the break having a couple of chances”.
With Ndiaye’s injury, Harrison may now get more playing time at Everton. But according to Graeme Bailey from LeedsUnited.News, the Toffees are unlikely to sign him permanently.
