Scott Parker Wins FWA Player Of The Year Award

It’s easy to get caught up in Parker hyperbole thanks to his galactic-superhero haircut, and I think at the end of the day he’s as worthy a recipient of the award as anyone, but really? Scott Parker’s professionalism is what’s keeping West Ham up? It’s easier to shine when there’s less talent around you? That’s nonsense.

How about this: Scott Parker has played extraordinarily well in an important position while the rest of his club has been struggling, and his leadership has been vital to a team still fighting to avoid the drop. Based on his performance on the pitch, his reported ability to inspire his team, and his amazing hair, Scott Parker deserves the FWA Player of the Year award.
