Don't think he'd last 2 minutes with Warnock.
He has a a bad attitude, thinks he's better than he actually is unfortunately.
Hopefully he'll grow out of it.

What makes you say that?Originally Posted by G rangetown Blue
I read a lot of negative things about him, and witnessed his petulance first hand at Ashton Gate when we played them, where he made a right pr1ck of himself, and ended up storming off at the end.
I will always remember him laughing in our keepers (Murphy) face,and aggressively taunting him as he lay on floor, after he'd unfortunately conceded an OG.
He then gave it large when he scored, but ran straight off the pitch on his own at the end, as if to distance himself from his team because they got beat.
I notice, and remember things like that.
I watched him in a TV interview saying that his goal is to win the Ballon d'Or.
He's bonkers.
Haha yeah It's probably healthy for young sportsmen and women to have that kind of attitude.
He's a young guy at Chelsea and regularly scores goals at a decent level, I'd be more worried if he said he thought he could be a solid championship player.
I'm fairly sure he said he was confident of winning it.
Again, bonkers.
That's probably every footballer's goal to be fair
The Bristol City fans worshiped him when he was with them. He hardly missed a game in his time there, and that was despite sometimes carrying a knock. I think he's a natural goalscorer, I would have liked to have seen him with us.
He told Standard Sport: “I wanted Tammy Abraham from day one. I spoke to Eddie Newton (Chelsea’s loan player technical coach) about it, but he ended up at Aston Villa."
That surely has to be the same Eddie Newton who had a hugely successful loan spell with us himself (early 80's?), so successful that he was chaired off the pitch by the fans in his last game?
You'd have thought he might have had a bit of a soft spot for us and tried to personally make this deal go through, wouldn't you?
My guess is that Chelsea didn't want one of their stars playing for a "route one" side preferring instead to go for a "proper" footballing team.
I am being a bit flippant with my remark but propaganda from media, pundits and fellow professionals does have a bearing on such things.
I think they probably wanted to be careful after the season wasted at Swansea.
They struggled all season, and barely created any chances, and despite the stats showing he was probably their most dangerous attacker they didn't play him all that much.
Everyone expects us to struggle this season and most to finish bottom, so they probably thought a season at a strong championship side would be better for him in the long run, where he will at least get the chance to do some attacking. I don't think long ball is necessarily a minus where he is concerned, as he has a lot of the attributes to do well in that regard.
He's still young, plenty of time to get the right move to the premier league if he does well at villa
Yes it's the same Eddie Newton, that loan spell was quite some time ago, doubt he feels that much affinity to the club, though strange they didn't want him to have regular premier league football experience over more championship football.
