Parker 'immensely enjoying' his role with Tottenham

Tottenham's Scott Parker insists he is 'immensely enjoying' his central midfield role with his new club following today's 3-1 win over QPR.

The England international has not played in a losing side since joining Spurs from West Ham United in August and says it is great to play with the quality of players Harry Redknapp has at his disposal.

Today Tottenham dominated the first half at White Hart Lane before the R's hit back slightly in the second but the home side held on for a important win that sees them return to fifth on the league table and Man of the Match Parker was delighted after the match.

"They come out second half and put us under a bit of pressure but overall I think we fully deserved to win. We played some lovely stuff in the first half and some good football towards the end there with a great finish from Gareth (Bale)," Parker told Sky Sports 1.

"I'm enjoying it immensely really. Playing alongside players like Gareth, Luka (Modric), Rafa (van der Vaart) - everyone out there today is fantastic to play with and obviously winning games which is very nice as well. I think this squad and this team can go places this year and we believe in ourselves and we can certainly do something."
