So your logic is he should have played the games Pukki was injured for, even though he was injured himself... but when he got back from being injured for about 8 months he should have been playing 90 mins immediately.
He was. But what games he played were by and large 20 minutes off the bench.

The expectations which some people have for Idah and Parrott as internationals surprise me. I would dearly love to see them score lots of goals for Ireland, but are they really goal-scorers at senior level? Watching the EFL highlights - I know, no way to judge any player's contribution during all his time on the pitch - I have been struck by how often Idah is in or around the box watching someone else score.
How do Idah and Parrott compare with other 20-22 year olds in the Championship? Before tonight's games:
20 year olds Appearances Goals
Amad Diallo 28 8
Tommy Conway 26 6
Aaron Ramsey 23 6
Charlie Cresswell 20 4
James McAtee 26 4
21 year olds
Joao Pedro 27 9
Ellis Simms 17 7
Cameron Archer 21 4
Tyrhys Dolan 30 4
Ian Maatsen 30 4
22 year olds:
Josh Sargent 30 11
Jack Clarke 34 7
Daryl Dike 18 6
Anass Zanoury 26 6
Michael Obafemi 24 5
Troy Parrott 22 2
Adam Idah 16 1
If I get the time, I'll try and replace 'Appearances' with 'Minutes Played'.

Sargent returns to starting line up for Norwich tonight. Idah keeps his place with Pukki being dropped. Norwich manager obviously thinks more of him than some here.
Stephen Kenny Saviour, Leader, Winner, An Autobiography - In All Good Bookstores Now
Hes playing on left wing and just got nice assist with good cross.
Yes good to see, hopefully he can build on it
FFS gone off injured again. Looks like its his ankle
Terrible luck. At least Gibson injured too…
I wonder if that’ll change what happens to Cannon - or else does someone like Hogan get a nod as 4th striker
Still crocked, I think, but Omobamidele got on for a half.
bring connor ronan for this fellow
I think Adam needs to look after himself and what's best for him and his club at this stage. They've given him a big long contract with little to show for it other than injuries. Going against his manager and club isn't the most sensible idea given his injury history. He needs to focus on number 1 for now. We're well stocked in that position at his level/ability anyway
