Speaking to the CT about Eastwood whose goal earned City a point against Ipswich on Saturday, Boothroyd said:"Freddy's work-rate is absolutely terrific.
"That's a pre-requisite for this side because we're not good enough to carry any players, but his workrate is under-estimated.
"He's unfortunate not to get more starts though there are still things he can add to his game and to make him an even better player and he and Marlon work really well together."
