If we end up in the Europa League, the likes of Parrott, Skipp and Roles (and other young talented players) should get those minutes and experience for those games. With our lack of depth and back to back injuries to key players, we really can't risk adding more travel fatigue and short turnarounds that the EL comes with.

Just Skipp imo. When everyone is fit we don’t have any trouble with depth and can virtually play x2 quality different Xi. Will everyone be fit in new year who knows but it’s possible. Plus the fact surely pochettino will see Europa as a cup we can win and it’s also a great safety net for CL qualification. Not sure we’ve been in it since it’s carried CL qualification. I think the orders from above maybe to take it more seriously than we have in past.

Well he’s playing and scoring in Barcelona for the u19s. Just not the Nou Camp.

No, he's not registered, hence the "Well researched" comment.

I think U23 (or maybe U21, I can't remember) players don't have to be registered in the 25 man squad so technically he could've played. Obviously it's moot now if he's playing in the youth game he's obviously not playing tonight so that solves that.

He couldn’t have played as u21 players have to be added to the B list but even then as he’s classed as a non HG due to being Irish he wouldn’t got on the list anyway

Thrilled to see that the coaches are rewarding his performances by getting him accustomed to training with the 1st team. I can only imagine he's learning so much from seeing how Kane trains and prepares. He probably has the easiest and least obstructed path to the 1st team and I would like to see him given a runout if we end up in the Europa league.

You need to have been at the club for 2 years (aged 15 to 21) to be able to get onto the b list.
Parrott hasn't been with us long enough

Nationality doesn't mean anything. Just needs to come through our academy.

Parrott is often compared to Robbie Keane. Just discovered Keane was just 6 weeks older than Parrott on debut. He scored twice.
