You can see Parrott stalking that lad who's picking on little Skipp from a distance and once he reaches him, he gives him what he deserves for picking on the smallest player on the field

Skipp isn’t that small he’s at least 5 10 “. And I’m pretty sure can look after himself.

He's also a 17 year old playing in the u/23's not that makes an excuse as Parrott is even younger, I'm glad Skipp can look after himself was getting a wee bit worried there :whistle:

I hope i'm wrong but i'm not really seeing anything that impressive :meh:. He looks more Tomas Pekhart than Gareth Bale as far as his abilities at that age to me.

You either know nothing about football or have watched 1 mediocre game. He’s 16 the lads got all the raw ingredients to be a top modern day centre forward.

Was he fronting up to the keeper? Think he also got sent off recently for us? Little bit spicy?

Honestly think he could do a better job for Ireland's seniors than some of the shite we've resorted to picking up front.

I still think Keano would do a better job now. I could probably outscore Shane Long myself.

And to think Shane Long is one of the better options. I mean, Graham Burke who scored twice in 36 games for Notts County... there's gotta be some kids in the youth setup worth a chance against that bunch. O'Neill's working miracles to have us even half competitive.

I was not comparing Parrot with Greaves ability wise I just making a point that is great to have very young players I.E Parrot at 16 years old playing for the under 23s as also Skipp 18 years old playing for the under 23s and I think it bodes well for the future.
Jesus greaves scored 120 goals for Chelsea youth one season who in their right mind would suggest that Parrot was any where near the great man .Frankly I find your comments sarcastic and unwarranted

I think he was just going for a cheap gag. Like me if I said I always thought the ‘J’ stood for Jimmy.

It’s a definite bonus he’s Irish. I’d imagine unless the picture changes drastically he will be in the seniors at 18. If he did come good would almost perfectly dovetail will end of Kane career. To find Kane2 just when kane1 was ending would be glorious.
