Highlights from the Premier League match between Burnley and Manchester City
Speaking after the defeat to City, Parker said he took "responsibility" for the team dropping back into the Championship.
"Like anything, you're on the treadmill," he said. "At this present moment in time, you're on it and engaged in it. And trying desperately to get results and the best version of yourself at this moment in time.
"We have to learn from our mistakes as a football club this year and move from there really. Regarding myself, like always, we've given everything, sacrificed a lot of things and we've fallen short.
"I hold the burden for that and the responsibility for that. We'll keep moving and keep going.
"Fundamentally now, the most important thing is reflecting on this season. Everyone at the football club, work out the way forward and go from there. My main feeling is the game tonight, where we come away from it."
