Ashton a Happy Hammer

Today's Sun reports that Ashton is happy at West Ham and looking forward to the new season,

"Newcastle are a massive club and it's flattering but I haven't given it any thought. There's no point me shouting about it at all.

I'm happy at West Ham. I've enjoyed it for the last six months and can't wait for the season to begin. It'll be the first time I've begun a Premiership campaign and that's something I'm really excited about."

The paper also reports that Ashton is heavily tipped to play for Endgland this season.
