Dean Ashton has had complications with his ankle and has to undergo surgery to fix it once and for all. He has been injury plagued ever since his fracture (courtesy of one Mr Shaun Wright-Phililps) while on international duty preparing for the World Cup.
My heart goes out to Deano, I think when he plays, he is the only one I can rely on. I was tracking him from his Crewe days and to see that kind of player emerge and score the way he does, was very exciting.
It is now being reported that he will be out until the new year. Not really the best news we could have hoped for, but I’ve come to expect it with everything that has been going on recently.
Personally for me, the most unfortunate thing about it is that Carlton Cole will continue to get a look in when his actions off the pitch do not deserve it (and arguably his actions on it). I appreciate that he works hard, very hard infact, but then if you handed me a West Ham shirt with my name on it, so would I. And you wouldn’t catch me drink driving at 4:30am either.
Respect the Faith
