I never loved him, but I rated him and feel bad for him now. Going from one sinking ship to another...
Parker's problem was that he wasn't good enough for a top premiership side, and that while he was here some fans were yet to realize that we were not a top premiership side.
Parker's mani problem was that he had Nicky Butt or Emre beside him so we always had a central midfield of tiddlers who didn't really boss the game.
Parkers main problem was that he either ran around in a circle with the ball at his feet and envariably passed it backwards or sideways,seldom did he slot a telling through ball.
Plus he had a s*** hairstyle.

still, i will never forget his legendary tackle on Joe Cole
