Wolves striker Freddy Eastwood insists he has not fallen out with manager Mick McCarthy even though he has failed to feature in the first-team recently.

The 23-year-old, signed from Southend United for £1.5million in the summer, has scored four goals in his nine appearances for Wolves, but has not started a game since last month's defeat to Hull City.

Eastwood told the Express & Star: "People try to say I've fallen out with the gaffer but it's not true.

"He just felt he needed to change things around. I think I should be playing but I won't be going to see him and shouting about it.

"He told me that if I want to get back I'll have to work harder on the defensive side of my game. I just need to knuckle down."
