Parker Will be Back for Blackburn Game

Avram Grant says that Scott Parker will be back for the Blackburn game on the 7th March and could possibly be fit for Man City. With West Ham presumably targeting the last three games it seems likely that Parker will be rested for the City game.

"I don't know about next Sunday, but he will definitely be fit for the week after. I want him to play against City. I wanted him to play against Chelsea also but it depends on his condition.

The good news is maximum two weeks he will be fit, maybe next week also. Every player wants to play with a good player - he's the player of the year. But he didn't play and we need to play also without him."
