whelk Posted 6 October, 2016 Share Posted 6 October, 2016 Yoshida is the headline though. As fast as Walcott. And faster than Belerin http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/row-zed/maya-yoshida-quick-theo-walcott-8986588#ICID=sharebar_twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 6 October, 2016 Share Posted 6 October, 2016 This did the rounds over a month ago and was based on the 2 or 3 matches which had been played at the time. As a result there were plenty of quick players who hadn't had the opportunity to sprint over any kind of distance to get up to full speed, and the list is basically a compilation of "the fastest people who've had to go flat out to chase a long ball in the Premier League in the first 2 weeks of the season", as opposed to an actual list of the quickest players.

the saint in winchester Posted 6 October, 2016 Share Posted 6 October, 2016 Need to see a 100m race between all the quick lads, and if Usain is free, give him a lane too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloydie Posted 6 October, 2016 Share Posted 6 October, 2016 Need to see a 100m race between all the quick lads, and if Usain is free, give him a lane too. I'd pay to watch that to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintadam Posted 6 October, 2016 Share Posted 6 October, 2016 Yoshida one off the fastest player in the league? It can't be true, must be some sort of measurement error, i always thought he looks very slow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And faster than Belerin http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/row-zed/maya-yoshida-quick-theo-walcott-8986588#ICID=sharebar_twitter Had it on good authority that this is top speed stats and that over 5m and 20m Charlie Austin is fastest at Saints currently. Hard to believe I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint si Posted 7 October, 2016 Share Posted 7 October, 2016 Vague memory from somewhere that Lloyd Isgrove is supposed to be one of the fastest in the PL. Obviously not in an actual match... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenridge Posted 7 October, 2016 Share Posted 7 October, 2016 Had it on good authority that this is top speed stats and that over 5m and 20m Charlie Austin is fastest at Saints currently. Hard to believe I know. I doubt Austin is even quicker than Sammy Saint over 5m let alone other members of the 1st team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe I know. Very easy to believe tbh, getting rapidly up to full speed and having a high top speed are two different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSAINT Posted 7 October, 2016 Share Posted 7 October, 2016 I love stats like this because I can't imagine Yoshi being quicker than Walcott or Austin being the quickest over a short distance! Redmond must be up there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david in sweden Posted 10 October, 2016 Share Posted 10 October, 2016 (edited) Very easy to believe tbh, getting rapidly up to full speed and having a high top speed are two different things. RIGHT. ....those old enough to recall can remember 1960's left winger John Sydenham delighted in giving a full back a 2 yard start ..and then burned him out over the next 20.
