Early life

edit

Parker was born inLambeth,Greater London, and attendedHaberdashers' Aske's Hatcham CollegeinNew Cross.[5]As a 13-year-old, he appeared in a well-known English advert forMcDonald's,in which he playedkeepie uppie,during the1994 FIFA World Cupcampaign.[6]Parker is a graduate ofThe Football Association's now-defunct national School of Excellence atLilleshall.[5]

Club career

edit

Charlton Athletic

edit

After graduating from Lilleshall, Parker signed forCharlton Athleticas a trainee and made his first-team debut as asubstituteagainstBuryin theFirst Divisionon 23 August 1997, a match which ended 0–0.[5]He signed his first professional contract with the club two months later.[5]Over the next couple of years he made only a few sporadic substitute appearances for Charlton, although he was one of the brightest prospects in English football.[citation needed]In October 2000, Charlton, then in thePremier League,loaned Parker to First Division clubNorwich City[7]for two months to give the England under-21 international some first-team experience. At Norwich he scored once againstSheffield Wednesday.[8]On his return toThe Valley,Parker was immediately called into the first team to replace injured captainMark Kinsella.[citation needed]Parker played so well for Charlton that, upon his return from injury, Kinsella could not regain his place in the starting line-up.[citation needed]Parker soon became the linchpin of Charlton's midfield, combining tenacious tackling with an ability to carry the ball quickly from defence to attack and play telling passes, creating many chances for his teammates.[citation needed]

Chelsea

edit

Parker, who had been consistently linked with moves away from Charlton for several years, finally left the Valley on 30 January 2004 to joinChelseaon a four-and-a-half-year contract for a £10 million fee.[9]Alan Curbishley,the Charltonmanager,criticised his attitude following news of Chelsea's interest, accusing him of bad behaviour and saying that "...his conduct in training has not been what it should have been."[10]Parker was initially signed as cover forClaude MakéléléandFrank Lampard,but did not get too many chances to play in his preferred position.[citation needed]He scored his only goal for Chelsea in a 2–0 win againstPortsmouthatFratton Parkon 11 February.[11]At the end of the2003–04 season,Parker was named as thePFA Young Player of the Year.[12]

Following the summer signings ofArjen RobbenandTiago Mendes,Parker's first-team opportunities were limited during2004–05.[citation needed]Although he found first-team opportunities hard to come by at Chelsea, he was a regular starter in Chelsea's League Cup matches, a competition where he played in three consecutive victories against West Ham,[13]Newcastle[14]and Fulham.[15]His problems were compounded when he broke a metatarsal bone in a match against his former club, Norwich City.[16]Due to this injury, Parker missed both legs of the League Cup semi-final against Manchester United and thefinalagainst Liverpool, although he took part in the celebrations.[citation needed]

Newcastle United

edit

Parker was sold the following summer, moving to Newcastle United in July 2005 for a £6.5 million fee.[17]He became a regular in the Newcastle first team and was one of the few players at the club to show any consistency during an often difficult season in which Newcastle finished in seventh place, despite having a very poor start underGraeme Souness.[citation needed]His first Newcastle goal came against his former club Charlton in a 3–1 defeat on 25 March 2006.[18]Later that month he was diagnosed with glandular fever, putting an end to his season.[19]The timing was especially unfortunate for Parker, who had been playing well for Newcastle, as it ended any hopes he may have had of forcing his way into the2006 FIFA World Cup.[citation needed]

In July 2006, he was named Newcastle United's new captain by managerGlenn Roeder,succeeding the retiredAlan Shearer.[20]His first goal as captain came againstWigan Athleticon 19 August 2006, in a 2–1 win on the first day of the season.[21]Parker scored his second goal of the season againstFulhamin September 2006, but after he was substituted Newcastle conceded 2 goals and subsequently lost the match.[22]Despite Newcastle's poor form, his performances earned him a recall to theEnglandsquad in September after an absence of more than two years.[citation needed]In November, Parker scored a goal in the 116th minute againstWatfordin theLeague Cupand then scored in the penalty shoot-out to allow Newcastle to progress in the competition.[23]He scored his fourth goal of2006–07againstTottenham Hotspurin December 2006.[24]

Scott Parker was found to be the second best player in the country for December 2006 bySky Sportsand Opta Index.[citation needed]He led Newcastle on their way toUEFA Intertoto Cupvictory and was presented with the Intertoto Cup plaque in March 2007 before theUEFA Cupfirst-leg tie withAZ.[25]

West Ham United

edit

In June 2007,West Ham Unitedsigned Scott Parker for a £7 million fee.[26]Due to injury, he did not make his first-team debut until 26 September 2007 in the 1–0 League Cup victory againstPlymouth Argyle.[27]His full Premier League debut came on 29 September 2007 in the 1–0 home defeat toArsenal,a match which saw Parker sustaining another injury and being substituted forHayden Mullinsat half-time.[28]Parker scored his first goal for West Ham, a last-minute winner in the 2–1 win atMiddlesbroughon 22 December 2007.[29]

In 2008–09, Parker played a major part of West Ham's season and on 24 May 2009 was votedHammer of the Year,by the club's supporters.[30]and became the first player sinceJulian Dicksin 1997 to retain the award after winning again on 4 May 2010.[31]

He was again one of West Ham's key players in 2009–10, scoring the winning goal in a vital 3–2 win against Wigan Athletic, which ensured another season of Premier League football for West Ham.[32]

In July 2010, West Ham chairmanDavid Sullivanstated that Parker was not for sale to another club at any price. This came after a bid from Tottenham Hotspur[33]and also public interest fromAston Villa.[34]In September 2010 Parker signed a new, five-year, contract with West Ham which also made him the highest paid player in the club's history.[35]

Parker scored three goals in his first six appearances in 2010–11. His goals came in matches againstOxford United,[36]Chelsea,[37]andStoke City.[38]He is widely regarded[39][40]as one of the most consistent English midfielders over the last few years. There were calls from England supporters and Avram Grant[39][41]for the midfielder to be included in England's squad and feature on a regular basis.

On 12 FebruaryCarlton Colepraised Scott Parker's "inspirational" pep talk at half time after, being 3–0 down, West Ham earned a 3–3 draw againstWest Bromwich Albion.Cole was quoted as saying of the talk "If you were there you would have had a tear in your eye".[42]Parker was namedPremier League Player of the Monthfor February 2011 following his performances in West Ham's 3–1 wins overBlackpoolandLiverpool.[43]Following his performances for West Ham despite their relegation, and his England recall, Parker was placed on the six-strong shortlist for the prestigiousPFA Players' Player of the YearAward. He missed out on the PFA award but was named theFWA Footballer of the Year.[44]

Parker started the first four matches of 2011–12 for West Ham United in theChampionshipand scored his first goal of the season, and tenth league goal for the club against Watford on 16 August 2011.[45]

Amid speculation that Tottenham Hotspur would sign the player, Parker handed West Ham co-ownerDavid Golda hand written transfer request, saying "I have had a fantastic four years at West Ham United and will never forget all the support I have had from the fans and everyone associated with the club." "The manager and board have tried hard to convince me to stay but at this stage in my career, I need to be playing in the Premier League, especially now that I am involved with England." "I hope the fans will understand and respect my decision and I wish the club every success in their fight for promotion this season."[46]

Tottenham Hotspur

edit

On 31 August 2011, Tottenham and West Ham both announced the transfer of Parker to Spurs, with the fee believed to be £5.5 million.[47]Tottenham said "We are delighted to announce that we have reached agreement with West Ham United for the permanent transfer of Scott Parker."[48][49]With Scott Parker playing for Tottenham Hotspur, it meant that he was the only player to represent clubs in North, East, South and West London in the Premier League.[50]On 10 September 2011 Parker made his Spurs' debut, providing an assist for fellow debutantEmmanuel Adebayor.[51]He made his home debut the following week in a 4–0 win over Liverpool.[52]Parker finished his first four matches for Tottenham on the winning team.[53]He captained them in a 2–1 away win over Blackburn on 23 October.[54]Parker finished his first season at Tottenham being named as their Player of the Year for the 2011–12 season.[55]Parker was injured on international duty before the start of 2012–13 and did not make his first appearance of the season until 16 December as a 90th-minute substitute.[56]

American journalistWilliam Saletanhad high praise for Parker's defensive skills after seeing the QPR match in person atWhite Hart Lane."Parker doesn't score or get credited with assists. He leaves that to the guys up front," he wrote.

What Parker does instead is win games. He does this not by punctuating the match but by controlling it. He smothers oncoming attacks. He forces opponents off the ball. He orchestrates distribution out of the back, setting in motion a Spurs onslaught that will culminate 60 yards downfield... You can't watch the game up close without noticing Parker.[57]

Fulham

edit

On 19 August 2013, Parker signed a three-year contract with Fulham, for an undisclosed fee.[58]On 23 November 2013, Parker was made captain for the match againstSwansea Cityin the absence ofBrede Hangeland,and scored his first goal for them in the 2–1 loss atCraven Cottage.[59]Fulham were relegated at the end of the season.[60]Parker retired from playing in June 2017.[61]

Style of play

edit

Parker was known as a tough tackling central midfielder.[73]

On the international stage, Parker had been among the notable England players to have been criticised and panned for their hard-working but less technical style of play.[74]Overlooked for major tournaments such asUEFA Euro 2004and the 2010 FIFA World Cup, in 2012 Parker was a regular presence in the line-up, being partnered with Steven Gerrard. Although England had a relatively disappointing Euro 2012 campaign, some viewed the partnership of Parker and Gerrard as one of the positives.[75]
