A Canadian Captain & English Football Legend

His first pitch experience was lacing up for Newcastle within the toughest premier league to defend the likes of Cristiano Renaldo and Wayne Rooney. With the city in a rally for the Canada Games, and an injury sidelining David at home, the star and the community were together again for some grassroots moments.
