This for me needs addressing this summer. In our starting 11 there's way too many players that are one paced and don't have much pace about them. Take our front six today once Yaya went off, Silva (he's amazing) Nasri, Dzeko and Garcia are all slow and pace is a huge thing in modern day football. Look at Barca with Sanchez Pedro Neymar. Madrid with Bale Ronaldo Di Maria. Bayern with Robben and Ribery on either side, pace frightens the hell out of an opposition and our only option is a pretty lame Navas. All top teams now require an abundance of pace but were severely lacking.

Ribery keeps the ball close to his feet and is technically as good as there is, but I don't think he's quicker than Milner. If he is, not by much
You don't see Ribery beating people with his speed. He does it by one twos, close control and clever movement. There are much much quicker wide players than him.<br /><br />-- Sun Apr 13, 2014 11:20 pm --<br /><br />

Milner showed it's not just about pace. The desire to fucking run without the ball with intelligence is an absolute necessity.

Let's just buy 11 Aaron Lennons, and have 11 headless chickens running around.
Well I disagree, he has very good close control but to me he is fast as well. Navas is poor and Aguero can't string more than 4-5 games together without getting injured so it is a pretty viable concern.Marvin said:He isn't.
