Parrot 28? We sure this doesn't also include goals for country? I see 14 in Eredivisie, 4 in KNVB Cup, 3 in UEFA Conference League. Then 5 for Ireland in the Qualifiers so that still doesn't make 28.

This site says he's scored 10 in the conference league and apparently he actually has 35 goals including Ireland goals -

Although that site has him on 15 league goals n ive checked a few other sites and they have him on 14. So likely that pic is using some dodgy stats from a crappy site like that.

Maybe he has 10 in the Conference League spanning several years but this year even the UEFA states he has 3.

UEFA stats page with Parrot on 12

I'm not trying to tear Parrot down or anything, hell of a striker, but I think these figures may be incorrect and I'm just interested to see where the data is coming from.
