Warnock on the Tammy Abraham saga
NEIL WARNOCK:
“I talked to Eddie Newton, who is in charge of their loan deals. I was told I’d be kept in touch and unfortunately I wasn’t.
“I thought the least you should get at this level is a telephone call."
“But I wanted Tammy, I thought he could spearhead our challenge and fit the way we play, but it wasn’t to be and now Villa have got the rewards of him."
“The only thing I can think of is that our deadline is two or three weeks earlier and they might have been thinking of using him in their own squad."
“But surely playing 20 to 30 times in the Premier League would have improved him - no disrespect to the Championship - I thought it would have been a no brainer.”
