As Wayne Rooney broke Bobby Charlton's Manchester United goal scoring record, we take a look back at some of his best in United's colours

Wayne Rooney broke Sir Bobby Charlton's all-time scoring record for Manchester United on Saturday afternoon.

The United and England captain curled home a world-class free-kick in the 94th minute of the Premier League tie with Stoke to rescue a 1-1 draw and move onto 250 goals for the Red Devils.
