Wayne Rooney would be return to his best form if he cut alcohol from his life, says former England defender Martin Keown.
The Football Association has banned England players from having nights out while on international duty after pictures emerged of captain Rooney drinking into the early hours at a wedding at the team hotel.
"He's the England captain and there is a responsibility,鈥� Keown told Darren Fletcher and Jermaine Jenas on the Friday Football Social. 鈥淵ou're never out the public eye and you have to learn to behave yourself.
"He's got a very long career ahead of him. If he takes alcohol out of his life and lives a clean life he'll be back to that 100% player."
