Parker has been garbage at times

not sure why he gets the praise? Yeah, he has put in some good blocks/tackles, but he has often been behind the play and slow to read certain situations. There's a reason he's called muddy arse Parker, often has to slide in because he hasn't read the opposition's play (not shakespeare).

Parker's distribution has also been utterly s**t, he looks clueless in possession and often resorts to little spins towards his own defence before panicing and playing a forced five yard pass. Makelele could at least play short passes without putting himself under pressure.
