I thought he was good last season, well there was certainly some good performances in his twenty odd apperances....notably at home to Everton and United.
This season, partnering Sandro, it didn't work. The balance wasn't right at all and of course he became the scapegoat. I think we should definitely try him to see how we go, at least to have a look at another option if the same problems persist.
He did have excellent pass completion and tackle success stats from last season. One positive of having Parker is that we are dominating teams possession wise, and obviously while we have the ball it makes us difficult to beat. However, the possession is passive instead of active and this could come back to haunt us.
I don't know though, I think AVB is more of a 'play the percentages' man and while we are dominating possession, he may feel that he should stick with Parker.
