Eastwood hopes to "kick on"

Tue, 03 Nov 14:57:55 2009

Coventry forward Freddy Eastwood has vowed to be more selfish in front of goal as he attempts to rediscover his prolific goalscoring touch.

Eastwood was on target in the 3-1 defeat by Reading on Saturday - his first strike since April.

The Wales international has struggled to reach the heights of his Southend days, where he scored 59 goals in 130 appearances and played a key role in their promotion to the Championship in 2006.

Since leaving the Shrimpers for Wolves in 2007, though, Eastwood has failed to find the net on a regular basis and has only registered five times for Coventry in two seasons.

Buoyed by getting on the scoresheet on Saturday, the 26-year-old told the Coventry Telegraph: "I am delighted with my goal and hopefully I can kick on and score some more.

"I know I can score goals outside the box so I should have more shots and I think if I was encouraged to shoot more in and around the box then I would definitely score more goals."

  1. The team I have followed for nearly FIFTY­ years have­ gone from the old third division to the­ premier­ division,and are almost back where they were­ all those­ years ago.
    Three players are worth their­­ "salt" in this team.....Morrison,­­ Westwood,and the loanee Van Aanholt.
    the rest­­ wouldn't have got in my old team that I played­­ for...Coventry Sporting Club.
    Get rid of RR and­­ SISU....they are strangling this Club.
    Speculate to­­ accumulate by getting some DECENT players in.
    Until we­­ do it on the field Coventry City are going­­ "NOWHERE"
    The best teams in the world are­­ "Up to their ears in debt"
    All SISU are­­ interested in is the Ricoh and a share of profits from­­ any Gigs that are held there
