PNE have a defensive set-up, but as stated his goals scored per minute played is dismal. And Ferguson’s emergence pushes Parrott down the pecking order. That said, Parrott seems to be playing well (see ratings below for last 5 games), and apparently a contributory reason for Cannon’s good goalscoring form. Seems to work best as a foil to a 9, as we have seen in his partnership with Obafemi.
As for Keane, the equivalent of two games is a lot of time in international football. If we played B internationals, he could be given more time to bed into the standard of international football. As is, he has shown nothing to warrant a second look in those minutes played – and at 30 years of age, and arguable at or beyond his playing peak – why persevere with an ageing player clearly off the pace of senior international football? There’re better options.Troy Parrott - 7
Some nice touches off the bench and took his goal exceptionally well.

Some decent touches on occasion but the end product just wasn’t there for the Tottenham loanee. Got more and more frustrated before being brought off as part of the second half quadruple change.

Busy all game up there, even if the final shot or pass tended to elude him. Was willing to run at Reading's defenders and never really gave them a minute's peace.

Ran himself into the ground, always on the move across the front line. Carried the fight to QPR's defenders and tracked back brilliantly towards the end, to stop a QPR break from resulting in a goal. Saw two good chances go begging first half.

A couple of loose moments but a committed shift from the Irishman and had a few openings in the final third. Wanted the ball and always tried to present an option to his team mates. Lacked that final piece of decision making.
