So I didn't think, even being honest, that when I went to Manchester United I'd finish my career there as the record goalscorer.
Everyone watches and waits for Rooney.
Wayne Rooney, record-breaker for England.
The first England player to reach 50 international goals.
It's an astonishing achievement.
Well played, Wayne Rooney.
Yeah, it was an emotional day for me, I think.
Again, as I said before, it was a lot of talk.
Once I got to 45 goals, a lot of talk.
He's catching it up, is he going to do it?
And then it was relief to get it, but I actually had a tear in my eye on the pitch and I'd never thought that would happen.
To me, it was emotional and I was really proud.
It's something which I never thought I'd do.
I was just happy playing for England as a young lad and then to go on and get the goalscoring record, I was delighted.
I think it's great to look at and obviously...
My children can look at them records, obviously, and enjoy them as well.
So, no, when you see them and you look back and you see goals, different goals, it's a good feeling.
2004 and 2006 we were unlucky, obviously, to lose on penalties.
