as it stands i'd like to see him stay another year - he's learning and improving and is guaranteed minutes, along with scoring goals.
He's bounced around so much in his career so far - seven clubs in six seasons - that you kind of feel there'd be no harm staying at Alkmaar another year alright. Not as if they're a bad side.

Just to maybe add a bit more context here, one of the players tucked in just behind him on the scoring charts is Dylan Vente who is contracted to Hibs and is out on loan in the Eredivisie.
He'll probably be sold for two or three million this summer, as he was a disaster at Hibs, similar to Parrott's history in the English Championship.
So it's possible that clubs might want to see a bit more before they start offering 12 million plus for Troy's services.

But let's not act like this season is Parrotts first good season either. He was excellent in the same league last year too so there is 2 years of evidence that he's one of the better players in the Dutch league.

Some of the defending in the Dutch league is terrible, it really isn't much better than LOI in a lot of the cases, but Parrott is outscoring some good players so who knows another year at AZ he could end up at Ajax or PSV.

Parrott wasn't in the AZ Alkmaar squad involved in the defeat away to Heracles on Sunday. Is he injured?

It said a groin injury on the Flashscore app.

AZ are playing the Dutch Cup final this afternoon against Go Ahead Eagles, kick off at 5pm Ireland time.
Should they win, it'll be their first cup win since the 2012/13 season, and their fifth in total. GAE have never won the cup.
The winners go straight into the group stage of next season's Europa League
Doesn't seem to be any coverage here, but I'm sure streams will be available from the usual sources

AZ lost on penalties. Parrott was off injured by that point it seems.

Would wonder whether the financial impact of AZ missing out on Europe (not yet confirmed, they could still qualify through the league) might impact on whether Parrott stays or goes this summer. He might be more keen to move, AZ might be more open to a sale, or need to sell players, and they might consider a lower fee as a result.

Came back as a late substitute against Heerenveen in the European play offs earlier for his first appearance in a month
AZ won 4-1, and will face Twente on Sunday, with the winner going into the second qualifying round of the conference league

Meanwhile, Brendan Rodgers - and tiny baby! - also got into a selfie with McGregor. You'd think he, at least, would have a bit more wit:

That is actually shocking from Rodgers - you can understand what are effectively a bunch for overpaid kids hanging around with this ****** - but Rodgers should have known better.

That is actually shocking from Rodgers - you can understand what are effectively a bunch for overpaid kids hanging around with this ****** - but Rodgers should have known better.The only thing which might explain it is that BR just happened to be holidaying nearby with his family, McGregor bumped into him, asked for a selfie and BR just thought it easier/quicker to pose for a few seconds than tell him to push off?
But if not something like that, then what else was BR thinking, as you say.
Agree and I think there is, similarly, more chance that Ferguson bumped into MacGregor and his cohort in Pacha out of coincidence and the overlapping social circles than anything more nefarious. MacGregor asks him for a photo, whats he going to say? I think the lad is allowed to go wherever he likes in the off season as long as he behaves himself and then gets focused for the season ahead when he has to. Much ado about nothing...

I know it takes all sorts and maybe it's not so bad, but I often think if more of our players eschewed the party scene (even in the off-season), they'd be playing at a higher level for better teams. James McClean is a great example of someone who works and works and works to get the most out of their abilities. While some lads are out partying over the summer, McClean's Instagram shows him in the boxing ring, in the gym or spending time with his family. It's why he's the captain of Wrexham and back in the Championship, raring to go again at the age of 36.

McClean was lucky he didn't kill himself in that self inflicted car crash a few months ago. Sounded like he went for a crazy overtaking move in bad weather and was lucky not to crash into others. I'm not 100% sure he'd be the first choice of role model I'd go for.
which photo is really worse at the end of the day? Stevies or Fergies :)

Quite possible, especially with Rodgers being a former Liverpool manager and McGregor being a big Liverpool fan.

They lost 4-3 in the end, a goal and assist for Troy. You'd imagine they'll win the home leg and go through.
