They did not want to be left with more players like Ljungberg and Dyer who pick up a decent wage compared to the rest of the squad yet either get injured constantly or don't make an effort in the first team.
If we give Ashton a start in every game to the end of the season and he carries on as he is I think he'll get his new contract and in fairness he should be one of the highest paid players at the club rather than being one of the clubs best players yet earning the least wages.
Do you think SAF will sign him? I can't see Ashton fitting into your team somehow

By messing him about i meant in terms of dropping him for Carlton Cole.
As for fitting into United, i dont know. I don't see why not. He's such an intelligent player and i can only see the likes of Rooney and Ronaldo thriving of someone like Ashton. He knows how to find the back of the net too. Someone like him, IMO, can play in any system with any players. I really do rate him and but for that ankle break he'd already be a regular for England.
We won't sign him i dont think, i just wish we would....
