Wayne Rooney needs to buckle down and perform as a striker if he is to earn England's cap record, says current holder Peter Shilton.
The former England goalkeeper, who won 125 caps in his career, repeated his belief that the captain – capped 116 times – should have retired from international duty after Euro 2016.
"I don't think he is the same sort of player now," Shilton said. "I've not seen the Wayne Rooney I know for a year as a striker. He now wants to play in midfield - if he was a midfield player he would have played there."
