Another week and still no takers for Scott Parker! The club are keen to get Parker moved on and recoup as much of the £7 million paid to to Newcastle for his services as they can.

The failure to offload Parker is thought to be a major cause for concern for the club considering the player is rumoured to be earning in the region of £60,000 per week.

I personally think clubs are running the clock down until deadline day to sneak a bargain! I can’t see past Tottenham for his eventual destination.

On Saturday, Karren Brady confirmed that the club needed to part with some players in order to balance the books.

“No one has embarked on negotiations for one of our three England squad players,” she said in her tabloid columm, adding: “We need to sell for our accounts – but not desperately.”

Parker’s body language is indicative of his desire to leave the club with whom he happily signed a five-year contract last autumn, just watching him not celebrating scoring goals or his team mates scoring is ample enough proof he no longer wants to be at West Ham.

Having put in two very mediocre performances in the games versus Cardiff and Doncaster many have questioned his commitment to the club.
