Sutton's career record:

Birmingham (half a season): Played 11 (0) scored 1
Celtic (5 and a half seasons): Played 192 (6) Scored 86
Chelsea (1 season): Played 27 (12) Scored 3
Blackburn (5 seasons): Played 153 (9) Scored 62
Norwich (3 seasons): Played 114 (14) Scored 43

So he averages around 36 games a season and scores on average 13 goals. That's not a bad return over a career. So much for the 'injury plagued' myth - he seems to play quite a lot most seasons on average.
