Career highlights
A highly experienced goalkeeper
currently in outstanding form
with West Ham, David won his first
senior England cap against Mexico
in the Wembley friendly in 1997
(won 2-0). Three years later Peter
Taylor called him up to face Italy
in Turin and he kept his place
for the Spain match in February.
Five caps to date.
A powerful and talented goalkeeper,
David started his playing career
at Watford, before going on to
make 215 League appearances for
Liverpool, winning the League
Cup in 1995.
Having moved to West Ham from
Aston Villa for £3.5m in
the close season, David was unfortunate
to suffer a major injury whilst
playing for England during the
pre-season friendly against Holland
in August 2001.
Since
his return to fitness in November
2001, he has made a significant
contribution to West Ham's improved
league form, and also returned
to the England fold with an appearance
in the return friendly against
Holland in Amsterdam in February. |
