Former West Ham United goalkeeper Rob Green says Scott Parker’s “proven record” of getting teams promoted from the Championship would make him the perfect fit as the club’s next manager.<\/p>\n

Parker, 46, is expected to replace Nuno Espirito Santo,<\/a> who was sacked on Tuesday following West Ham’s disappointing start to the season after relegation.<\/p>\n

A three-time former club player of the year at West Ham, Parker has led Fulham, Bournemouth and Burnley to promotion as a manager.<\/p>\n

“Scott’s shown a proven record of getting promoted,” Green, a former team-mate of Parker’s, told BBC Radio London.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Detractors of Scott would say, ‘this is not a really imaginative style of play, it’s not one that might thrill the fans’. I think Scott would say, ‘well, actually, my team knows exactly what it needs to do to get promoted’.<\/p>\n

“There’s so much quality in that side that they should still get promoted. You get in the Premier League, you stay in the Premier League, then you worry about the style of football.<\/p>\n

“Give the stardust in that [West Ham] front line to him [and] he can give you a really good platform to go forwards with it. It makes perfect sense to me.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former West Ham United goalkeeper Rob Green says Scott Parker’s “proven record” of getting teams promoted from the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":951206,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[64,63,85],"class_list":["post-951205","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/951205","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=951205"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/951205\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/951206"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=951205"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=951205"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=951205"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
