Parrott has scored at pretty much every level he's played u23 with Tottenham and Ireland underage levels
Hes got lots of goals in him, he'll be great to watch next year

YEP.
He's been a success at every age, generally underage his peers so I'm hoping he does well and expect him to improve as the season goes. Desperately hope he goes injury-free also.

Firstly, I never said Parrott needed nor will be starting every week for Millwall, I said "he needs to playing week in week out" which would mean starting or getting minutes off the bench on a regular basis. Secondly, Millwall's strikers are hardly prolific so I would be optimistic if his all round game is good that he won't necessarily be banished to the bench for months on end or anything. Matt Smith scored 14 goals in all comps Tom Bradshaw scored 10 goals in all comps Bodvarsson scored 5 goals in all comps Mahoney scored 4 goals in all comps Thirdly, I have absolutely no idea why you're saying "ten goals is not unrealistic" when I was the one only a day or two ago who debated with you that if Parrott could score between 5-10 goals next season it would be acceptable.

This sums it up neatly Smith Bradshaw Bodvarsson Mahoney Bennet are decent attackers but are very much Championship at best attackers. No fear if he does his stuff and adds his star quality to proceedings he will be playing for them regularly as opposed to the roster of attackers at say Celtic or Bournemouth where it might be tougher getting your game.

So anyhoooooow, good news Troy is going to Millwall.
He may not be an automatic starter but will definitely get a lot more minutes than at spurs. He’ll score some goals but it’s pointless guessing how many. The important thing is he develops his game and improves. He’s 18 playing in the championship which is fantastic. All eyes on millwall fc first game !

Looking at their roster of attackers he won’t have to be Mason Greenwood even to play regularly for them. If he can click he will add a bit of star quality to their attack and if he could get 10-15 goal contributions good on him anything else is a bonus. They are pushing for promotion too no doubt hel be key to their hopes.

Bristol Rovers were keen also. The Pirates were very interested in bringing Parrott onboard. He's going into the lions den at Millwall.

He'll be playing with some chirpy Cockneys at Millwall. If he can score in his first game,and keep repeating, they'll never give him the bird.

I'm not sure such stipulations exist with regard to minimal requires playing time. What if he takes time to get going? Will Millwall be required to continue playing him? Could be costly for millwall, I think there would be a more casual agreement that looks at whats best for all parties. Tottenham want parrott to get playing experience. parrot wants to get the experience Tottenham and millwall agree that parrott is at a stage where he could be an improvement on what Millwall already have and has the realistic opportunity to fight for a place.

They do. Arsenal recalled Eddie Nketiah from Leeds halfway through his loan spell because he hadn't played enough minutes.

Agreed and looking at Millwalls roster of attackers Parrott is undoubtably adds a bit of quality to what really are championship level at best attackers in the main.

Certainly Liverpool regularly have that caveat or similar in their loan agreements. I don't know about Spurs though because they don't loan as many players, but it's not at all uncommon. Often an approach is that the club loaning the player pays less the more they play the player, which is then an incentive for them to give the player game time.

I'm sure Stephen Kenny is over the moon with this move, knowing if Troy can string a number of games together under his belt over a 3-4 month period he will then become a realistic option for selection.
Its what we're crying out, for once we actually seem to have a little bit of depth in areas that were once devoid of any competition. I'm looking towards next summer and even from an extended panel point of view, we will have a number of players chomping at the bit to get into the squad! Which can only be seen as a real positive, it now means that rather than having 6 or 7 token call ups to fill holes that wouldnt haven't been there on merit in the past.

I cant wait for the next championship season to start to see how he gets on. Its a lot of expectation (or rather hope) that he is our next big thing. With Connolly also looking like he can do it at prem level and idah and obafemi also looking like they have a chance, nit to mention mcgoldrick reaching a new level and long also still doing what he is capable of, all of a sudden its looking like we are well set on our strikers for the next campaign on beyond, which has been a big hole since Robbie came towards and finished his career.
