Wayne Rooney thinks Harry Maguire needs to get his confidence back to improve his form at Manchester United.
Harry Kane takes Premier League record away from Manchester United great Wayne Rooney

Harry Kane has wrestled a Premier League record away from Manchester United great Wayne Rooney.
A man who needs no introduction at Old Trafford and beyond, Rooney scored 253 goals for United during a hugely successful 13 years with the club between 2004 and 2017. He is currently the manager at cash-strapped Derby in the Championship.
Rooney netted 208 times during his Premier League career - for Everton and United - with 94 of his strikes coming on the road in away matches. That stood as a competition high before Kane surpassed his total.

Back in top form after his early-season struggles, the England captain scored for Tottenham during their game with Brighton on Wednesday night. He followed up an opener from Cristian Romero.
As a result, Kane has 12 goals to his name in the Premier League this season and 95 away strikes overall. It has taken 139 matches to accumulate that tally, while Rooney - who was often deployed in a deeper role than his successor as national team skipper - needed 243 appearances.
Alan Shearer (87 in 219) and Frank Lampard (85 in 305) are the other top goal-scorers in away games.

Speculation over Kane and his Tottenham future remains at fever pitch, meanwhile, after a high-profile transfer to Manchester City fell through last summer. City and near neighbours United have been credited with further interest in the player as attentions turn to the upcoming window.
