According to The Sun, Wayne Rooney vows he will become England’s all-time leading goal scorer.
He scored the second in Three Lions 5-0 win over San Marino. And today he found the back of the net again in the 1-0 victory over Estonia. He’s now fourth on the list with 43, one behind Jimmy Greaves (44) and further adrift of Gary Lineker (48) and Sir Bobby Charlton (49).
