'Parker's immense frustration was hard to mask'

You didn't even need to listen to what Scott Parker was saying after Burnley's defeat by West Ham. His body language alone told you everything you needed to know.
The way Parker's side allowed the game to slowly slip out of their grasp will concern him. He has been in the Premier League managerial game long enough now to know that it's matches like Saturday's that can define whether your team can stay in the top flight or not.
Burnley were effective in the first half, but then lost their way. What will irritate Parker is that even in the moments when his team looked more clunky in the second half, it still didn't ever feel like they were being overrun or outplayed by West Ham.
Without the errors from Martin Dubravka, there is a really strong chance the game would have finished 1-1. It is a shame that something so costly happened to Burnley's goalkeeper as the Slovakian has largely been very solid since joining.
Parker's immense frustration was hard to mask.
