How Tottenham misfit Troy Parrott turned into a goal machine and is plotting their Europa League downfall with AZ Alkmaar

Troy Parrott's Tottenham career did not amount to very much for one with such talent and promise.

Ninety-six minutes and no goals, starting with defeat on penalties in a League Cup tie at Colchester followed by six minutes from the bench in two Premier League games.

It ended with cruel symmetry as Tim Krul saved his penalty in an FA Cup shootout defeat by Norwich on a night when Eric Dier waded into the home crowd to confront abusive Spurs fans.

Covid brought the country to a halt and Parrott never got going again in London.
