Scott Parker... who now knows he played for Charlton apart from Charlton fans. West ham made him the player he is...
B@llocks. Stupid statement. He was a top player when he left us, hence the fee Chelsea paid. (10 mill) Was also at Newcastle (6.5 mill) before the Hammers (7 mill). Went to Spurs for 5.5 mill.
So how exactly to west ham make him the player he is today?
A stupid statement - no really?
It was said in jest as a few West Ham fans on twitter were jokingly putting that they made him the player he is when he moved to Tottenham. They were only joking mind you, but then I wouldn't put it past some of them.
Jams clearly got that i was being sarcastic so don't see why it went over your head.

Basically this thread is going to make sad reading because it will contain a glut of players who left us before their prime and became famous at other clubs.

You're right - not forgetting those players that we couldn't get until they were past their prime.

I think the public at large associate him with every other club he played for after us Bren, because that is how he is billed by the media... "Former Chelsea/Newcastle/West Ham midfielder, Parker..." ...
