You get the best out of him that way and that hasn't happened for him this year. "But when you break records like Wayne has, the England goalscoring record, Manchester United scoring record, all the appearances and amount of trophies he has won, you have got to be a top class player and people should remember that." Rooney has been left out of the England squad to play Scotland and France next month – the second straight selection he has missed out on.And Robson, who does not agree with the decision, feels it would have come as a massive blow to the 31-year-old just 12 months out from the World Cup in Russia. "I know Wayne really well and he will be really disappointed that he has been left out of the England squad," said Robson."I hear people saying he hasn't been a regular, but he has been involved with the squad all the time, he has been training, he has played a lot of the league games of late.  "When people say he shouldn't be in the squad because he hasn't been playing regularly, well that's a nonsense."</blockquote>
