Parker takes positives from defeat
Scott Parker believes West Ham's experience of last season will stand them in good stead as Gianfranco Zola plots a way clear of a long relegation battle.[LNB]The Hammers slipped back into the bottom three following a first defeat in four matches after going down 2-1 at home to Everton.[LNB]Zola admits he is at a loss to explain just how the Irons were beaten, having created more than enough chances to get something from the game.[LNB]Midfielder Parker, 29, feels the Hammers have enough quality to soon get the results their performances deserve - and can draw strength from the way the team rallied after Zola had initially struggled to find consistency following his appointment in mid-September 2008, losing five from six league games before eventually finishing a creditable ninth.[LNB]"It was not the best of results for us by any means and we did not deserve it, but there are lots of positives we can take from it," Parker said. "We had a good win in the week over Aston Villa, and we wanted to build on that.[LNB]"This happened to us last year when the manager came in and we had a run of results which we did not really deserve. We can get out of it. We have got too much quality in this squad."
