Bredbury Blue Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 This article gives the fastest premier players as at 21 November 2015. Any surprises in the table for you, or anyone you'd expect to see but not in the table? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-34884849 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgit Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Billy Jones and Richie De Laet are a couple that I wouldn't have thought would be in the top fifty, let alone the top twenty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 ^Like you I was shocked with Billy Jones inclusion and will be checking out his sprinting with special interest next time I see him play. I also never noticed Jerome, Albrighton and Wes Morgan being particularly speedy players. Would have expected to see Agbonlahor in the list...injured early season?

rijit Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 surprised oxy chamb's at arsenal isnt in it, just a point is this with the ball or without ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I'd have thought Aguerro or Sterling might have been there. Speed of thought and proper delivery of passes, shots and crosses counts for a lot (see under Navas). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 A shame there's no more Superstars on the telly. Malcolm McDonald could shift a bit sharpish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangrakBob Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I did not realise Origi was that fast, big lad too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 ^I would have thought it's simply a table of their fastest sprint (with or without the ball). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 A shame there's no more Superstars on the telly. Malcolm McDonald could shift a bit sharpish. I was thinking exactly the same. A sprint champion over half a pitch length, another over a pitch length, another over 4 laps of the pitch, etc, before the Charity Shield or after FA Cup final (when it was the season finale game). Thirty years ago might happen, no chance these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
