Wayne Rooney surpasses George Best, Dennis Viollet

Wayne Rooney moves ahead of George Best and Dennis Viollet in the list of Manchester United's all-time goalscorers.

Wayne Rooney has overtaken George Best and Dennis Viollet in the list of Manchester United's all-time goalscorers.

The England international claimed a brace during United's 4-4 draw with Everton earlier today, taking his tally in a United shirt to 180 goals since he joined the club in 2004.

Those two strikes have seen Rooney move into fourth on United's list of goalscorers.

The 26-year-old is now 69 goals behind Sir Bobby Charlton's record of 249.
