Club career[]

Celtic[]

Born in Dundee,[1] Wallace started his career with Celtic and progressed through the club's youth system. He made his Celtic debut, coming on as a 68th-minute substitute, in a 4–2 win against Inverness CT in the third round of the Scottish League Cup on 27 October 2002.[4] With one appearance made in the 2002–03 season, Wallace signed his first professional contract with the club on 23 June 2003 on a four-year deal.[5]

A pacy left winger, Wallace made his UEFA Champions League debut against FBK Kaunas in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League second round, coming on as an 80th-minute substitute, in a 1–0 win to advance to the next round.[6] It wasn't until on 1 November 2003 when he made his first league appearance for Celtic, coming on as an 81st-minute substitute, in a 5–0 win against Kilmarnock.[7] This was followed up by scoring his first goal for the club, in a 5–0 win over Dunfermline Athletic on 8 November 2003.[8] Whilst clearly a skillful player, Wallace made only a few more first team appearances that season, as Alan Thompson remained the first-choice wide-left player at Celtic, but his contributions to the club saw them win the league after winning 1–0 against Kilmarnock on 18 April 2004.[9] Following a 1–1 draw against Motherwell on 12 May 2004, he was attacked by the Celtic's supporters; prompting a police investigation.[10] Wallace picked up his first silverware with the club, coming on as a second-half substitute for Stephen Pearson in Celtic's 3–1 win over Dunfermline in the Scottish Cup.[11][12] At the end of the 2003–04 season, he went on to make fourteen appearances and scoring once in all competitions.

In the 2004–05 season, Wallace began to receive more playing time for Celtic, playing in the midfield position, rotating in and out of the starting line–up.[13] After being sidelined with a hamstring injury, he scored a hat-trick on his return, in an 8–1 rout of Falkirk in a Scottish League Cup tie on 21 September 2004.[14] After the match, manager Martin O'Neill praised his performance, commentating that "he would never see the day that Wallace would score a hat–trick".[15]Alan Thompson also said that Wallace was likely to succeed him in the future at left midfield positioned.[16] However, he made little impact in either his league or European appearances, leading a loan enquiry from Inverness CT, whose bid was rejected.[17] This led manager O’Neill respond to Wallace's bid rejection, saying the player remained part of his plan.[18] After the transfer window closed, he continued to have his playing time, coming from the substitute bench for the rest of the 2004–05 season.[19] With the club finished second place in the league and only won the Scottish Cup, Wallace went on to make twenty–one appearances and scoring three times in all competitions.[12]

With the arrival of new manager Gordon Strachan at the start of season 2005–06, Wallace made his first appearance of the season, starting a match against Artmedia Bratislava in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round and set up the second goal of the game for John Hartson before being substituted in the 54th minute, in a 4–0 win that was not enough for Celtic to overcome a 5-0 deficit from the away leg.[20] However, despite announcing his intention to fight for his first team place, he found himself on the sidelines for the first few months and found his playing time, coming from the substitute bench.[21] On 3 December 2005, Strachan began to play Wallace at left-back position in place of Mo Camara and he started his first match in the position, starting the whole game, in a 3–1 win against Aberdeen.[22][3] However, this turned out to be a strange selection given Wallace's slight build and inexperience of playing in a defensive role.[23] Strachan persisted with this team selection for several weeks to the bemusement of fans who could clearly see the player's lack of aptitude for playing in defence.[3][24] This further highlighted his lack of positional awareness in playing in defence when he scored an own goal in the New Year game against Hearts at Tynecastle, although the club still won 3–2 on 1 January 2006.[25] Towards the end of the season, new signing Mark Wilson replaced him at left back even though it was not his natural position (Wilson is a right back).[26] But Wallace played in the Scottish League Cup Final at a left back position against Dunfermline Athletic, due to Wilson being cup-tied and Celtic won 3–0.[12][27] He later made two appearances later in the 2005–06 season and despite being dropped from the first team, his contributions saw the club win the league.[28] At the end of the 2005–06 season, Wallace went on to make fourteen appearances in all competitions.

Ahead of the 2006–07 season, Wallace went on trial at Championship side Birmingham City.[29] It came after when he performed a poor display in Celtic's pre–season tour.[30] Amid to his future at the club, Wallace made two more appearances for Celtic, both starting the matches at the start of the 2006–07 season.[31] However, he was clearly no longer part of the plans of the Celtic management and was expected to leave the club.[32]

Sunderland[]

Wallace was sold to Sunderland on 31 August 2006 in a deal including teammate Stanislav Varga for a combined fee of up to £1,100,000.[33] Upon joining the club, he said about his former teammate turned manager Roy Keane: "I've been on the wrong end of a Roy Keane rollicking once or twice and I still decided to come here. But to be fair, if he does say something, it's going to be good for you. He wants to help you. When he does do it, it's positive criticism. He demands the best because he was world class for a decade. Obviously, he demands the best from everyone here to take the club back up."[34]

Wallace made his Sunderland debut against Derby County on 9 September 2006 and scored the winner in a 2–1 win.[35] This was followed up by setting up a goal for Liam Miller, who scored 14 yards past the goalkeeper, in a 3–0 win against Leeds United four days later on 13 September 2006.[36] However in a match against Ipswich Town on 23 September 2006, he played a role that led Jason de Vos to score an own goal, but was sent–off in the 86th minute for a second bookable offence, in a 3–1 loss.[37] After serving a one match suspension, Wallace returned to the first team, coming on as a 52nd-minute substitute, in a 4–1 loss against Preston North End on 14 October 2006.[38] In a match against Hull City on 28 October 2006, he scored his second goal for the club, which turns out to be the winning goal, but was sent–off for a second bookable offence for taking off his shirt while celebrating.[39] After serving a two match suspension, Wallace scored on his return, scoring the breakthrough goal in the 62nd minute, in a 1–1 draw against Southampton on 11 November 2006.[40] Following this, he was involved in the first team, and the left-wing position had been highly contested between the player and teammate Tobias Hysén.[41] Due to injuries, his early form did tail towards the back end of the season.[42] But Wallace was able to re-find his form as the season ended, rotating in playing either the left–back position and left–wing position and scored three more goals.[43] Sunderland fans were more than pleased with the promising form the player showed throughout the 2006–07 campaign as the club won the Championship.[44] At the end of the 2006–07 season, he went on to make thirty–three appearances and scoring six times in all competitions. Following this, Wallace was in talks with Sunderland over an improved contract.[45]

Wallace started the 2007–08 season as Sunderland's first choice left-back despite several new defenders joining the club during pre-season.[3][46] In the first game of the season against Tottenham Hotspur on 11 August 2007, he lined up on Sunderland's starting eleven to make his Premier League debut and successfully provided the 93rd minute assist that enabled Michael Chopra to score and the club went on to win the game.[47] In a follow–up match into the second game away to Birmingham City, Wallace played an integral part in the decisive goal when he provided the free kick that eventually led to Stern John's late equaliser, resulting in a 2–2 draw.[48] Wallace then scored his first Premier League goal, in a 2–1 win against Reading at the Stadium of Light on 15 September 2007.[49] Three weeks later on 7 October 2007, he scored his second goal of the season, in a 3–2 loss against Arsenal, which was the first ever goal for Sunderland at their first ever game at the Emirates Stadium.[50] Despite his involvement in the first team so far, manager Keane stated he would consider offers for Wallace, along with five other players and was placed on a transfer list.[51] However, it was reported on 18 January 2008 that Wallace had sustained an Anterior Cruciate Ligament knee injury and would therefore miss the rest of the 2007–08 football season.[52] While on the sidelines, he was linked with a MLS side Toronto want to sign him but talks never materialised.[53] Shortly after, Wallace made a recovery from his injury in early–March and spent two months, making progress on his recovery and featuring in the club's reserve matches.[54] It wasn't until on 11 May 2008 when he made his return on the final game of the season, starting the whole game, in a 1–0 loss against Arsenal.[55] At the end of the 2007–08 season, Wallace went on to make twenty–two appearances and scoring once in all competitions.

Preston North End[]

Over the summer transfer, Wallace remained on the transfer list, leading interests from Preston North End and Sheffield United.[56] In the 2008 summer transfer window, it was reported that he rejected a move to Preston North End and stay at Sunderland to fight for his place in the first team.[57] Following this, Wallace was taken off the transfer listed and he later thanked manager Keane for giving him a second chance to play for the club ahead of the 2008–09 season.[58] However on 31 July 2008, Wallace eventually signed a year-long loan at Preston with a view to a permanent deal at the end of the season.[59]

He made his debut for the club against Chesterfield in the first round of the League Cup, starting the whole game, and set up a goal for Neil Mellor, in a 2–0 win to advance to the next round.[60] A week later on 23 August 2008, Wallace made his league debut, coming on as a 55th-minute substitute for Barry Nicholson, in a 1–1 draw against Sheffield Wednesday.[61] Having started out from the substitute bench, he regained his first team place, playing in the midfield position.[62] Wallace then scored his first goal for Preston North End, in a 2–0 win over Watford on 28 October 2008.[63] He later scored two more goals by the end of the year, coming against Bristol City and Barnsley.[64] Wallace signed a permanent four-and-a-half-year contract with the club on 12 January 2009.[65] A month later on 21 February 2009, he scored his first goal since joining Preston North End on a permanent basis, in a 3–1 loss against Southampton.[66] Wallace soon became a fan favourite, due to the number of times he provided excellent crosses, mainly for Jon Parkin and went on to provide nineteen assists.[67] At the end of the 2008–09 season, Wallace went on to make thirty–nine appearances and scoring five times in all competitions.

At the start of the 2009–10 season, Wallace continued to establish himself in the first team, where he began to play in a playmaker role.[68] Wallace scored his first goal of the season, in a 1–1 draw against Ipswich Town on 29 August 2009.[69] He later scored three more goals by the end of the year.[70] Wallace then scored his fifth goal of the season, in a 4–2 loss against Bristol City on 16 January 2010.[71] He later scored two more goals later in the 2009–10 season, coming against Nottingham Forest and Reading.[72] Unlike last season, Wallace wasn't able to provide more assists, registering only seven.[73] However, he received thirteen bookings, missing two games as a result.[74] At the end of the 2009–10 season, Wallace went on to make forty–five appearances and scoring seven times in all competitions.

Upon leaving the club, Wallace said he was disappointed not to say goodbye to his Preston teammates.[75] However, Wallace was criticised in an interview with The Lancashire Telegraph when he expressed his lack of sympathy on Preston North End's struggles that eventually saw them relegated the following season.[76] While playing for Sheffield Wednesday against his former club, Preston North End on 20 February 2016, Wallace received boos from the club's supporters whenever he touched the ball throughout the match, losing 1–0.[77]

Burnley[]

Wallace transferred to fellow Championship club Burnley for an undisclosed fee on 2 July 2010, signing a three-year contract.[78] Upon completion of the transfer, he was described by manager Brian Laws as "one of the best left-sided players in the Championship".[79] The club decided to sign him after they ended their interest in signing Hearts’ midfielder Andrew Driver.[80]

Wallace scored his first goal in a Burnley shirt a week later on his debut in a pre-season friendly against Bury.[81] He continued to produce a good display throughout the club's pre–season tour in a number of matches.[82] Wallace made his league debut for Burnley, starting the whole game, in a 1–0 win over Nottingham Forest in the opening game of the season.[83] Two weeks later on 21 August 2010, he scored his first goal for the club and set up a goal for Chris Iwelumo in a 3–0 win over Leicester City.[84] Facing against his former club, Preston North End on 11 September 2010, Wallace played a key role in the match when he set up the opener for Iwelumo and a winning goal for Jay Rodriguez in a 4–3 win.[85] After missing a match, due to a groin injury, Wallace found his playing time, coming from the substitute bench, due to competitions in the midfield position.[86] Despite this, he was able to score his second goal for Burnley, in a 3–2 win against Watford on 13 November 2010.[87] On 3 January 2011, Wallace scored his third goal for the club, in a 2–1 loss against Reading.[88] By January, he found himself in and out of the starting line–up for the rest of the 2010–11 season.[89] At the end of the 2010–11 season, Wallace went on to make forty–three appearances and scoring three times in all competitions.

He didn't play but when he goes inside the pitch, he tried to change things, he tried to give a new dynamic he did well and trued a lot to do this."[142] But Wallace soon regained his first team place in the starting line–up.[143] After suffering an eight months goal drought, he ended this drought by scoring from a 25-yard piledriver in a 2–0 win against Huddersfield Town on 14 January 2017.[144] Two weeks later on 31 January 2017, Wallace scored his second goal of the season, in a 2–2 draw against Bristol City.[145] This was followed by scoring his third goal of the season, in a 1–0 win against Wigan Athletic.[146] Following this, manager Carvalhal praised his performance on regaining his form.[147] As a result, he was awarded the club's Player of the Month for January and March.[148] Wallace set up two goals in the next two matches against Birmingham City and Blackburn Rovers.[149] He added two more goals, coming against Norwich City and Burton Albion between 4 March 2017 and 7 March 2017.[150] After missing two matches due to a knee injury, Wallace returned to the starting line–up and set up two goals in two matches between 4 April 2017 and 8 April 2017 against Rotherham United and Newcastle United.[151] Having determined to help Sheffield Wednesday to reach the Premier League, he helped the club qualify for the Championship play–offs after helping Sheffield Wednesday beat Ipswich Town on 29 April 2017.[152] In the second leg of the Championship play–offs semi–final against Huddersfield Town, however, he suffered an injury and was substituted in the 5th minute, as the club went on to lose 4–3 on penalties following a 1–1 draw.[153] Despite missing a total of five matches throughout the 2016–17 season, Wallace went on to make forty–five appearances and scoring five times in all competitions.[154]

Between 2002 and 2006, Wallace represented Scotland, playing from U18 and Scotland U21.[187][188]

In November 2007, Wallace was called up to the Scotland B team squad for the first time.[189] He made his B team debut, starting the whole game, in a 1–1 draw against Republic of Ireland B team on 20 November 2007.[190] Throughout his football career, Wallace made statements that moving to new clubs and performances would benefited his hopes of getting a call–up from the Scotland national team.[191]

There were public calls from teammates and managers to convince the national team to call him to the squad, but was overlooked instead.[192] With the exception in October when he was called up to the national team squad.[193] Wallace made one full international appearance for Scotland, in a friendly match with Japan on 10 October 2009.[194][187]

Personal life[]

Early in his football career, Wallace developed a reputation for taking off his shirt after scoring a goal.[195] After his sending off against Hull City on 28 October 2006, Wallace said he would stop taking off his shirt and learn from his mistake.[196] In response, manager Keane said he has no sympathy for Wallace, but decided against "crucify him" and hope the player learned his lesson.[197] However after scoring his first goal in the Premier League, he took off his shirt once again and was booked as a result.[198] After the match, Wallace, once again, apologised and promised not to do it again, but doesn't regret his actions.[199] He, nevertheless, acknowledged of facing a fine from manager Keane.[200] Two years later, Wallace, once again, was sent–off for taking off his shirt after celebrating a goal against Birmingham City, which turned to be a winning goal, in a 2–1 win on 25 April 2009 and was suspended for one match.[201]

In October 2013, Wallace became a victim of Death hoax when a Twitter users tweeted that he died in a car crash.[202] Four months later, Wallace spoke in the interview about the tweet for the first time and was bemusement about, as well as, the acknowledgment use of social media.[203]
