Career Summary
May-Parrott hasn’t had the generic non-league career, he started out coming through the ranks at Step 5 side Woodford Town, breaking into their first team and going onto make over 90 appearances firing in over 50 goals. In November of the 2023/24 season, ‘The Parrot’ as he’s nicknamed caught the attention of newly promoted YouTube side Hashtag United (Step 3). He went on to finish his first season at Step 3 with 16 goals and 8 assists, averaging a goal every 87 minutes. This season has been no different, May-Parrott has been slightly injury hit but in 21 league starts he bagged 15 goals (two of which were hat-tricks) and grabbed himself 8 assists, just missing out on the play offs in the Isthmian Prem.
Playstyle
May-Parrott is a complete number nine, he drops in and can run at defenders but can also run in behind and finish calmly, he’s a poacher in the box but can also score worldies from distance. May-Parrott works best for fast transitional teams or teams that enable him to drop into the ten area and turn. He’s a super centre-forward but I think his attributes could also see teams potentially using him as a number 10 (due to his creativity and vision) or even in a front three as a winger/forward.
Strengths
Creator and goal scorer | Team-Play | Physical (Speed) | Versatility | Varied finishing | Game awareness/vision
Aspects to think about
Whether he could be utilised in the ten role or as a winger | On the smaller side physically | Not built to be used aerially
Where should he go next
He’s now proven himself two years in a row at step 3, I think now May-Parrott should be aiming for Step 2. In terms of geography if new Chelmsford manager Angelo Harrop is willing to play a 4-4-2, I could see May-Parrott working well with a strike partner, but teams like Dagenham (if they go down) or any Essex/Kent based clubs should definitely be interested.
