thats a bit unfair..

his value has doubled and Worthy was one of only managers to take a chance on him. Ashton is more of a complete player than he was at Crewe and even Dario Gradi has said this. Most strikers are beginning to come deep to get the ball i have noticed owen doing it for england and rooney does it all of the time. You cant compare Norwich to Crewe. lets be honest Crewe are hardly a "scalp" and Ashton has been injured this season.
