Former West Ham forward, Dean Ashton believes the absence of Andre Dede Ayew would be a big blow for Swansea City after the Ghanaian limped off in their 2-2 draw with Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ayew was forced off after just eight minutes after feeling a twinge in his hamstring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With just four games remaining in the battle for automatic promotion, the 31-year-old\u2019s absence is likely to affect the team\u2019s chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe\u2019s such an influential player for them in the role that he plays just off the front and looks like it could be a slight hamstring tweak,\u201d Ashton told the Quest show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou\u2019re always worried about what grade that\u2019s going to be and how long he could be out, certainly you\u2019re looking at 10 days probably at the very least, and that would be a real blow with the run-in coming in.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBut Swansea again, [are] just a team that, you know, it\u2019s not like they\u2019ve been free-flowing in terms of goals all season but defensively, they haven\u2019t been able to keep the standards up that they set.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
