He's great! He was also in "She's The Man" and he was the Juggernaut ("I'm the Juggernaut, BITCH!") in X-Men 3.
Despite all of that, he was originally a soccer player. He spent his career playing for Wimbledon, Leeds United, Sheffield United, Chelsea and Queens Park Rangers (QPR). At the international level, he represented Wales although he was English by birth. He holds the record for the quickest booking ever in a match when he was yellow carded 3 seconds into the game. He was also the QPR coach for a bit in the late 90's.
Ok, so those are some facts about him. I think that's about all I know about him and his soccer career.
