Avram Grant talks up Scott Parker’s form
West Ham United boss Avram Grant has hailed Scott Parker as the best English midfielder in the Premier League this season.
The 30-year-old has impressed despite the Hammers' struggles this term and Grant believes that Parker should be back in Fabio Capello's England squad as a result.
He said after the 1-1 draw with Wolves at Molineux:"I think if you look at all the English midfielders, with respect to others, there is no doubt that Scott, from the beginning of the season, has been the best midfielder.
"I need to talk to Fabio Capello! I am not the England manager, but I am sure that Scott deserves to be there.
"He played well offensively and defensively, was good with the ball. He has a great record for blocking shots of the other team and is very clever and professional – a good guy, very positive.
