Rooney Ready to Score

  • 12 October 2007

Wayne Rooney has admitted his lack of goals for England is becoming a worry.

Despite scoring goals against Macedonia and Liechtenstein back in 2003, the Manchester United ace has now gone 16 competitive games without finding the net.

You have to go back to Euro 2004 for Rooney's last goal in a competitive fixture and the former Everton striker is determined to put the record straight.

"I've not played as well for England as I have for Manchester United," stated Rooney. "I don't know why the goals have not come for my country.

"When I first started playing for England I did really well, but the last couple of years have not gone as well as I would have liked.

"It has been frustrating and I have read about it, listened to things said and watched people talk about me.
