Darren Bent, based on the two seasons prior to his sale, was a reliable and prolific scorer who was fit for entire campaigns and looked like he was improving.

Ashton is an injury prone player who does not score many and has a terrible fitness record over the last 2yrs.

You're insane to think Bent is the barometer for Ashton.

Ashton's a very good player, but he's just slightly above Saha for reliability and is not worth more than £10m based on his career to date.
