Troy Parrott

The supporters cheering will have irked him. Reminiscent of the reaction at the Aviva when McClean was brought on for his début. Trap just dug his heels in harder after that.

https://www.football365.com/tag/jose-mourinho - Mourinho defended Parrott’s penalty miss but was quick to point out he had not impressed in his cameo.

Mourinho told BBC Sport: “The penalty is nothing. He is a penalty taker in the under-23s, he scores every one in the unders.

“He was so confident, he wanted to take one, he wanted to take the responsibility, it’s an experience in his career.

“The problem is not his experience. The problem is the 30 minutes.“Now people can see that he has to work a lot so don’t think that Parrott is the second Harry Kane because he’s just a young kid that needs to work.

“Let’s forget the penalty because we all miss the penalties, it was not Troy.”

Won't be seeing him again this season.

Poor guy. Still admire him for willingness to take one

Talk about a fickle bunch, it doesn't take much to sway your opinions  Mourinho said his attitude problem was when he was playing or training with u23s or u19s, that he felt he was too good for it and his negative attitude brought down morale with u23/19 teammates. Said he had same problem with McTominay at Utd

Has had an aura about him since the 2014 WC shootout against Costa Rica. Surely should have been re-taken though, was well off his line. In terms of his attitude towards U-19's/23's, he is too good for that level. I doubt there are many 18 year olds out there who would take being dropped down to that level well tbh.  He'll have a longer future at Spurs than Mourinho will, but should get out of there on loan next season.
