I think so. While we definitely need someone who can score goals, he hasn't shown that yet at senior level. So it would do him no harm to keep him out of the spotlight for a bit and let him develop in L1 where he's getting plenty of game time for a 19 year old.

Is Norwood their designated peno taker? I wonder if he had scored in previous games, would Parrott have stepped up to take it.

At another time in our history, you might advocate keeping him at u21 level. However, we have been playing Hendrick in the #10 role for the senior side and we've seen how that has worked out. So why not try Parrott or someone/ anyone else?
 
Maybe in the Qatar game but for Serbia is not the time to tinker with the team i would think .
 
Hummmm maybe you are right if we keep the same side we will get the same result also .

A couple of encouraging things there: one being his ability to shield the ball and use his body. He looks much stronger and up for the battle physically. Nearly all of those highlights occur in close quarters with defenders and midfielders closing him down quickly. Almost all of our strikers (Connolly, Idah, Robinson) do their best work on the break with lots of space between them and the goal. Parrott can bring something else to the table.

I also think his decision making is very good. I’d like to see an all-touch video, because he’s very good at choosing the right out ball in these highlights.

He definitely seems to be growing in to himself a bit more and seems like he can handle the physical side of it. Again, highlights don't show the full picture, but that is encouraging.

State of the pitch by the way.

How many times has he played the #10? - I think Kenny has moved him back into a deeper role.

Anyway, no point bringing him to Serbia to sit on the bench.

I'd let him play against Wales on the Friday and then let him play on the Monday against Qatar.

Has all the hallmarks of what Kenny is looking for in.his number 10. High energy, gets around the opposition's half, sticks his boot it. But crucially (Unlike Hendrick in number 10) he actually has some ideas in.the final third and always looks to be linking play.

He'll definitely make.the squad. I imagine he'll get a run out as a number 10 in Qatar. But this is Kenny, he stuck Idah up front in his first game, and in the majority since. He's dropped his captain. I wouldn't assume to imagine what Kenny has planned. It's not like you can label this ireland team with the phrase: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. It's so broke.

I'd say he'll be on the bench in Serbia and could see action in the last 15 if we are behind...
*if* Clown

Could get a lot more minutes v Lux.  Would they really be considered better than some of the players he is now facing weekly?

Sounds like the Ipswich move is working out, if he becomes a 90 minute regular he will pick up some goals. Cook in as the new manager is another positive. 

The forum will break once he scores
It would damage this forums' reputation

I think I’ve seen Luxembourg causing teams like Holland and France serious problems in qualifiers over the last few years so their team seems to be improving and will be very tricky. 
It’s good to see these good reports on Troy Parrott

Some nice bits in that. Personally for me I want to see Troy score a goal even if it’s 1 I just don’t want him ending the season goalless.

With the hype around him plenty deflated by how it’s gone for him this year but it is what it is he knows where he is and we know as well. 

Parrott id play against Qatar but I don’t know has he done enough to warrant it against Serbia/Lux. One thing I would say is that we badly need a No.10 and Hendrick is not the answer he has to stop playing Hendrick there. 

Parrott could be an option there if he can link up with the loan striker. We ain’t blessed with options there.

Looked like scoring on at least two occasions in the games I saw and his play as a #10 is good for a teenager new to the team.

Comparing to our other young L1 loanees, we have Scully doing very well and Cassidy nowhere to be seen (was mostly being sprung from the bench until a thigh injury sidelined him in January).

With Idah getting a goal this weekend there is slight cause for not being completely depressed...

Of these younger attackers Idah is the one real old fashioned centre forward think even Kieffer Moore for Wales who’s turning into a fine goalscorer at his level and has scored a few for Wales too. 

It’s disappointing he hasn’t been out on loan at some stage he’s really only got token 5-10 minutes here and there. Scored an important goal on the opening day of the season and did so the weekend too. I’d love to see what he could do in a Championship team or even a promotion chasing League 1 team thats set up to suit him playing 90 minutes every week. 

He’s got big big potential as a centre forward and does have a poachers instinct.

No Kevin it's not you that has the problem, it's with that Donegal lad (who I think I know). He's spending too much time about Finn Park and has a bit of OLLIEITIS... dangerous virus your hair grows out of control and yiur mouth the same !!! along with a serious hatred of lads with whistles and flags

That's the biggest over reaction you could imagine. 

The goal keeper, defence and midfield personnel, I'd have no problem with it.

Connolly and Idah will probably be in Kenny's first choice front 3 anyway.

My only issue is the system he has here. Kenny is definitely playing 2 wide men in the front 3.

Cullen as the sitter with Knight and Hourihane. I could live with that.

Who exactly is coming into that team to make it the most realistic team you could imagine?

I think the biggest symptom from OLLIEITIS is fear of sh*t refereeing. Not that we would have to look too hard for thatWink and it’s always good to have hairBig smile than not have any at allBig smile
