Rooney announces international retirement

[Brin]

Good for him and he's only 31.

He's set the record for the most capped outfield player of all time.

Scored the most goals for his country.

Youngest ever scorer for England, he's done it all.

Be a long time before his records are broken, if at all.

Who knows a good season with Everton, more game time than he got at Man Utd and more goals may make him re think this over.

Well done Wazza.

[millertop]

Gets undeserved stick by some fans but he's done well for England.

200 league goals but I don't think he'll beat Shearer's 260 is it?

[Brin]

Around 260 ish and no, I don't believe he will beat that record.

[Lolmorgan]

I thought Southgate retired him months ago.

[Brin]

Southgate has asked him back but Rooney said No.

Top premier league player average international player tried every game for England good luck to him at Everton

[millmoormagic]

A credit to football to be honest, had a few issues early in his career while growing up, but has shown exempliary behaviour both on and off the pitch, despite the gruesome stick he's received, good on you Wayne.

He's England's top scorer isn't he?

[Pocket rocket]

Yeah sorry millertop I meant not for us but I mean generally against other top international players.
I'm not slating him I think he's had a lot of unnecessary stick always gives 100%

[Heliosphan]

I still think he could do a job, centre midfield or deeper, an area England seem to be short in.
