    Was surprised to read that his mum still works in the Mater. I'd imagine once he signs his next contract that will be the end of her needing a day job.

    While AZ are a big club in relative terms - they are a staple of the Eridivisie, a tier below the Big 3, probably on a par with Twente, Hereenveen, Utrecht and the like - As Razor said, they aren't in the same universe as Sporting in any way, shape or form.
    If I question Liam Scales ability to play intl football, refer me to this signature & his peformance at home at lb vs Port on Nov 13 2025.

    Im sure Ive said this on here before, but Troys predecessor at AZ was Pavlidis. He moved to Benfica for a 15 Million fee. Pavlidis scored a lot of goals at AZ so it is a pretty good comparison in terms of possible future moves. Id expect Troys fee to be a lot higher though based on him being a bit younger.
    Its really not that complicated!!!

    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Has he started to pick up a bit of a Dutch accent?

    No, but I've noticed before that he speaks differently when he's being interviewed by the Dutch media. There's a kind of different rhythm to his responses, a little bit slower and in a style that Irish people wouldn't speak in. I think it's probably just so that they can understand him. I noticed when he was interviewed by Tony O'Donoghue the last night that he just spoke in a standard Dublin accent/style so it seems to be something that he is consciously doing over in the Netherlands. I wouldn't say he's gone full Shteve McChlaren though, it's nowhere near that level.

    Nah, there’s two or three times there that he gave that Dutch lilt in his response. The sh and dt sounds. Subtle but definitely there. I’m addition to the more precise way of speaking that you mentioned Eirambler.

    A bad result for AZ today, but a well taken goal by Parrott. For a lot of his goals in the Netherlands that I've seen, he has been given far too much free time and space to pick his spot, but this one was a quick turn in minimal space and a smart finish off the inside of the post - a very difficult goal to defend at any level. He continues to look like he's ready for the next step and there's sure to be interest in January, even though the plan was originally for him to see out the season in the Netherlands. I'd say from an Irish point of view he'd be better staying in the environment he's in until the summer but we might be getting to the point where money dictates that that's no longer possible.
