Wayne Rooney should have retired from international football after Euro 2016, says ex-England captain and goalkeeper Peter Shilton.
Shilton, who won 125 caps, said: "He's not a midfield player. He sprays a few balls around but I don't think he's being very effective."
Rooney, 30, made his 116th appearance for England in Sunday's World Cup qualifying victory over Slovakia. However, his value to the team has become a hot topic after he spent most of the game playing in a deep midfield role.
"I thought he should have retired after the Euros - and it's not because he can break my record," added Shilton.
