Dreadful bit of sarcasm aimed at Parrott hype-merchants like myself. But he does highlight vaguely how Troy is faring.
This appears to be the consensus. Colchester defending in numbers and Parrott needing support. Hopefully a half time tweak helps: https://twitter.com/irishfantv/statu...723615747?s=19
Substituted on 67 for Eriksen.
Didnt do a huge amount tonight. It was difficult against a defense that was sitting very deep. Would have liked to see him on at same time with Erikson to see if there was a bit more creativity around him.
And Spurs losing on penalties won't do his game time prospects much good.
Just the four for Parrott today in the UEFA Youth League, a 9-2 win over Red Star.

Being linked with Juve now
Mick could , Troy Parrott and Connolly as a combo against New Zealand . The only thing is it if was a success...well ya know .
David Ornstein claimed in the athletic yesterday that Pochettino will use youth players, including Parrott, instead of buying in the transfer window in January: https://theathletic.co.uk/1325951/20...ein-on-monday/
Kane omitted from Spurs' squad today due to illness, Parrott has travelled with the team
On the bench! Exciting
Son with straight red - good news for the Eire; Lucas been terrible. Might see Parrott for an extended period of injury time as spurs protect 1-0 lead. If not, at least will likely have a few more bench spots with son suspended.
Great news - now we know just how close he is to breaking through. Hopefully holds his place on the bench over the next few weeks and gets some late minutes in a blowout win/loss for Spurs, as Connolly did against Man City a few weeks ago.
Spurs are away to Crvena Zvezda on Wednesday night, he scored four goals against their youth team two weeks ago, so you'd hope that's enough to earn him a shot at their first team!
https://www.the42.ie/troy-parrott-to...78886-Nov2019/ mick say he be in squad for Denmark match. Hogan got injured in warm up for stoke tonight so he may be a doubt
Son's red card has been rescinded. Probably reduces Parrott's chances of getting a first team run.
Not on bench tonight in Belgrade despite making traveling squad. Disappointing
I still think he will be playing "regularly enough" with Spurs by the season's end. No need for loan just now. Worth bearing in mind, he has barely played adult football, only started 7 PL2 games last year, and only 1 this year, in addition to his senior league cup appearance and pre-season games. So training with first team for past few months, and introducing him slowly is the right formula. Even a few more PL2 games will do him no harm, don't think it's stagnation as he's played so few games at that level.
He is 18 on Feb 4, Pocc certainly won't be able to ignore him then. That aside, I am confident he will get a few appearances off the bench this side of the new year, and then things will move quickly, similarly to Connolly. His international exposure will certainly do him no harm. Brighton have changed their system to 2 up front since Connolly emerged. I am sure Pocc may be open to experimenting with 2 up front should the right combination come along, i.e. Kane and Parrott is worth looking at. Lucas has been terrible, Eriksen has played like a man already living in Spain, Ali has been a shadow of his former self, so it's not as if there's not a need for injection of some young blood and experimentation.
Poch gets the sack at Spurs. Do we think this is good or bad for our man in London?
Bad news. Can’t see a new manager giving a 17 year many chances in the initial stages. Now I would finally support a loan move in January to Championship club
He looks so good tonight for the 21s. He's not playing as a 9 but every time he comes deep he is so comfortable and passes so beautifully. I do wonder about his place though.
Looking like Mourinho now. Currently, Parrott is negotiating a new contract. This managerial change has put a monkey in the wrench, as the stories of German interest continue to circulate https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7703739/amp/Bayern-Munich-prepare-shock-Tottenham-striker-Troy-Parrott-eye-Dean-Henderson-swoop.html Parrott should be in a strong position to dictate some first team exposure you would think
If it's Mourinho he should just go to Germany, would have a great chance of first team football and has the ability to go on a goalscoring run like Haaland has done there in the last year.
Premier league is where young players go to get run into the ground. Bayern would be a great move for him. Get him to a league that will develop him as a player. Look at how Bayern looked after Franck Ribery.
Hopefully the scouts are watching and more of our U21s will get moves to the continent.
If Germany is an option he should jump at it.
If I were his agent I would be a busy boy this morning. Mourinho has been announced as Spurs' new manager...
You're right of course, got my Red Bulls mixed up, thought he was at Leipzig.
On the off chance that the Bayern rumours are true he should jump at the chance in January. Bayern have a caretaker manager also, I wouldn't be surprised if Poch ends up there as well.
If it turns bad for him, he'll still be a teenager when Mourinho gets the sack. A chequebook manager at a club that doesn't spend big? That's going to be fun/a car crash...
Divide first. Then conquer.
They've brought in Mourinho because they want to win things, which is what Mourinho does, in every job bar his very earliest ones. Even at Man Utd, which so many consider a disaster, he won a League Cup and the Europa League. He'll play terrible football, fall out with everyone and generally leave things a little worse than when he found them (if you're lucky), but give him three years or so and he'll give Spurs a cup at least. For a team that generally has been considered to be in the top tier of Europe for a good while now, but hasn't won anything to back-up that status (last was a League Cup over ten years ago), Mourinho is a good appointment.
Whether he will be any good for youth players is another thing. Parrott might want to at least consider his options if things don't line up for him in Spurs over the next few weeks/months.

Mourinho excited by the potential in spurs academy. One of the main attractions for him. Anyone believe him?
