Premier League - Paper Round: Parker off to Spurs

Mon, 06 Dec 08:58:00 2010



West Ham fans were brought down to earth with a bang on Sunday when they lost at Sunderland - and now they could be about to lose their captain Scott Parker in January too.

Victories over Wigan in the league and Manchester United in the Carling Cup had given Hammers fans hopes that they were about to turn their season around, but defeat on Wearside sent them bottom and meant they have now gone 26 Premier League away games without a win.

According to the Daily Express it is all too much for Parker, who will leave for Tottenham for £8 million in January.

Spurs had a £7m bid for Parker rejected in the summer but now Hammers manager Avram Grant is 'reluctantly prepared to sell' in January.

A West Ham source told the paper: "The fact is the player wants to take his career on to another level at Spurs and there is no point in keeping an unsettled footballer."

One player who could move to Upton Park though is Manchester City's Wayne Bridge. The Daily Mail reckon the left-back will be allowed to leave Eastlands on loan in January, although Blackburn are also said to be interested.
 
I'd take him at United as a replacement for Hargreaves in midfield, thought it would be a short term fix for United and probably not a move Parker should make.
 
Parker :lol:

Also, would be interesting to see how the West Ham fans react after Sullivan said this a couple of months back. Sullivan said: "I made a promise that I would not sell Scott.

"I will not, for any amount of money, break that promise to the West Ham supporters.

"Scott is not for sale at any price, to anyone.

"West Ham supporters, for far too long, have had owners that sell their best players and promise one thing and do another.

"This is a new era. We are building a bigger, better West Ham and when we make a promise, we honour it."
 
He's had an awful injury and his team is at the bottom of the league. It's not the first time either. He's a competent player for the premier league but hardly CL quality.
