not sure that's nesseccarily a good thing . I mean that suggests they dont play the most attacking football?
or the strikers ain't all that and he will play down the middle and not on the left.
Good luck to him; I'm sure he will make it as a Championship/Premiership striker in the future, something in the mold of Shane Long/Chris Wood/Charlie Austin.
A shame that he couldn't make it here as we need a goalscorer (again on Saturday we created two great chances XG > 0.3; the second one had an XG of about 0.7) but our striker failed to score. Parrott's problem was being able to get into those positions to score even when he played upfront.
League One is a massive step down these days from the Championship so he should be able to thrive there.

Thanks for your updates about Troy.
Au revoir.
Ipswich sign Parrott & Matheson on loan
Ipswich Town sign Tottenham striker Troy Parrott and Wolves right-back Luke Matheson on loan until the end of the season.

Parrott, 18, made 14 appearances while on loan at Millwall earlier this season before being recalled by Spurs.
The Republic of Ireland international could make his Town debut against Blackpool on Saturday.
Parrott's last appearance for Spurs came off the substitutes bench in an FA Cup fifth round defeat by Norwich City on penalties in March.
'Working hard and scoring goals has got me here... I don't plan on stopping now' - Parrott excited to get started at Town
Troy Parrott is hoping to fire Ipswich Town firmly back into the League One promotion race after joining the Blues on loan on transfer deadline day.

“I’m happy to be here at a big club with good players and I’m excited to join for the second half of the season. It’s deadline day so it had to be done quickly but it went as smoothly as it could."
“Everyone can see the league table and where we are, with a couple of games in hand on some teams. Hopefully we can push for the promotion spots and I can score some goals. I love a challenge and I prefer to take that on than walk away, so I’m excited to get going."
“I work hard and score goals, that’s what’s got me to where I am today and I don’t plan on stopping now. I’m ready to go and feel match sharp. I can play off the left and behind the striker but I’ve grown up as a striker, wearing No.9."
“My first session (on Monday) was good and I enjoyed meeting the lads and the coaches and there were plenty of finishing drills, which is something I always want to do as a striker."
“I spoke to them (Lee O’Neill and Paul Lambert) before I came and got the right feeling off the two of them, which is why I’m here now."
“I know Alan Judge, Aaron Drinan and Mark McGuinness from Ireland camps but it seems like a group of good lads here who have made me feel welcome straight away."
“I had a couple of injuries while I was [at Millwall] so, for the first couple of months, I was stop-start really, but once I got going I enjoyed it there,"
“The lads at Millwall are good and the manager and coaches were great, so it might not have gone as well as we planned at the start. But I learnt a lot which I can hopefully take with me.”
Chuffed gooners lost. I have to say.
I know one shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but he does look like a bit of an arse there.
Can't unsee an Irish Lacazette.
Fuck, that could be it.
The hair, the eyebrow, the beard, the almost certain use of make up.
Not going to be the easiest wank I’ve ever had.
