However, one of owner Shahid Khan’s better investments was to hand Parker a two-year contract despite just three wins in his nine games in charge in the Premier League.

“We’re going into the best league in the world, the best players, the best teams... it’s a brutal league and I realise the challenge ahead.”The 18-times capped Parker — one of a bright new generation of managers — says that chief among the characteristics he is trying to embed in the club is a sense of pride.

“I hope we can grow gradually. It’s going to be tough but, if we can’t, we have core foundations that we always fall back on.”“I front it on the side and the players are the same and they go out and play, but underneath there is a support mechanism and who I am speaking about is family and close friends and it will be the same for the players,” said Parker.
