Parker is a completely average all-round player, who is very good at tackling and blocking. That's not enough in modern football. Parker has nothing on the likes of Carrick, Wilshere, Lampard, Barry and Gerrard because all of those can do what he does (maybe to a lesser standard) but have so much more to their game.
A rich man's Lee Cattermole at best.

Ok we'll see how he does there for Spain, the type of blocking and tackling player that Parker is, is kind of essential and as you say yourself he's the best that England have, so it makes sense that he should be in the squad.
Just read that Cahill is not out of squad, it just gets better and better
