Scott Parker

[LDN Blue 7,903]

That would be bad actually, in my view. Considering the situation in which our squad is, we can't afford to sign temporary replacement. Because in six or twelve month, we will be in the same situation than right now, ie we will have to look for a new player to rebuilt an ageing squad.

Good point actually.. Hadn't though that one through.

I'm not sure I will cope

[Fulham Broadway 16,838]

Good God. Dont let this happen

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

Loan deal would be PERFECT IMO. He's perfect to replace Essien this year... Cheap fix too and West Ham don't loose him permanently. Everyone's a winner.

Everyone's a winner.

Maybe in the short term...but consider this:

If Parker does come he's not going to sit around in the bench...If we wanted someone to play from the bench we would rather choose a younger option like McEachran (after all its in situations like this that youngsters get opportunities)

If he plays a regular role (that is if he plays well enough for that), he will definitely become part of AVB's NEW system...After his loan period expires, we will have the additional trouble of adding someone to take his place during the most inappropriate part of the season

^^ And isn't Ess injured for 6 months? So I assume, he is gonna take his place back when Scotty's loan deal expired? Or are you assuming Ess is finished for good?

[chrismada9 1,948]

Essien keeps getting the same injuries and keeps being out for a lengthy period of time, so from that alone, if he keeps it up, he could have no choice but to hang up his boots.

Marc Overmars had a similar case I seem to remember

If Scott Parker is to be loan out, i'll take him.

Other then that, don't see a point in getting him.

[Sheva. 5,373]

The Guardian says West Ham want 4m to loan out Parker.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Still Cheap,but if we have better options so....

[YuriZhirkov 106]

£4m for a loan?! No way!

[Kieran. 6,317]

If we get him for 2 or 2.5 I'd be happy.

[Guest justin_3d]

I still take Scott for a loan. It's very good business.

Except paying the 4 mill. Should be less like 1.5 or 2 mill.

Scott is a good player, who really deserved a career at Chelsea, but due to injury was caught short. Now he is at his peak, and he will help the club a lot.

Chelsea closing on £5m Parker loan deal

Hope this happen.

[crazy1 24]

tht sounds like a good business..........1.5 million as fee for loan n 3.5ml for his contract............hell yeah(will love to see him back at d bridge).......

[Blue Armour 4,278]

If this deal goes through, then we won't be seeing much of McEachran this season....

If this deal goes through, then we won't be seeing much of McEachran this season....

He'll probably get loaned out.
