3 clues where I have the answer, but cannot see the parsing for the life of me.

Freudian concept - suggestion from Greedy Nan in briefest form? (8) ?U?E?E?O. Obviously SUPEREGO (Freudian concept).

Flag hoisted, soldiers had to disappear (9) E?A?O?A?E. Obviously EVAPORATE (disappear).

Infectiously egged on by fellow with no vowels in Scrabble (8) F??B?O?N. Obviously FLYBLOWN (Infectiously egged on). (Okay, I get the F from Fellow).

Flyblown is an anagram of "on by fellow" if you remove all the vowels - and flyblown means it has eggs on it I guess; Greedy Nan figures in an old nursery rhyme: "Come let's to bed" says Sleepy-head; "Tarry a while" says Slow; "Put on the pan" says Greedy Nan; "Let's sup before we go". So shortly written is Sup ere go.

Flyblown = on by Fllw (no vowels in Fellow) anag
2 pave reversed or (soldiers) ate (had)
Flyblown ...take out 'on' and 'by' the rest is fellow without the vowels
