Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 33 → 9). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 40th of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the League Two. At 26 Ashley is in his prime years, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 26.5, Ashley carries the 40th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League Two of 67 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~8), then tapers with age. At 26, Ashley sits on 8, at or near its peak. The blue line is Ashley's projected Rating — 26.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
