TaylorJ_01 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Speed is a funny one. In terms of raw pace there's quite a few obvious ones. In terms of running with the ball at pace, and skillful, angular, explosive acceleration, I haven't seen better than Ben Arfa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdly I'd put Enrique up there for speed. He never actually looked fast, but remember loads of times where a winger would have several yards head start and he'd still get there before them. Obvious ones would be Dyer, Bellamy, and even Robert when he could be arsed. Martins had a reputation for being a speed merchant but I can only remember a handful of times he showed it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to disagree with that. Criminally underrated by everyone outside of us and Villa. Also had a knack of being in the right place to chip in with goals too.

Jonas Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) Shearer + Beardsley + any random for pace (Obertan would do) You've got everything else there - heading (Shearer), passing (Beardsley), finishing (both), tackling (both), work-rate (both), mentality (both), crossing (both especially Shearer) - as good as anybody's Edited February 10 by Jonas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
