Obviously missing the point aren't you? By saying we need pace I'm not saying lets go buy anyone who's fast, we need a player like Di Maria who's not only fast but very good technically also.

Ribery is not quick? What are you on?
He isn't. Jones handled him quite comfortably

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.

Navas couldn't even beat Flanagan !
He doesn't take on his full back in the David White manner
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.
Navas is not poor. He is a Spanish international and has had a great season for us

Aguero is a concern at the moment, but for me that's all down to missing most of pre-season. All his muscle injuries stem from that.

Ribery is not quick. You watch him again. He never runs away from anyone

He may be a Spanish international but is he showing it in a city shirt? He doesn't do it for me can't beat a man to save his life. Will give Ribery another watch then mate, always believed he had pace.
 
Top teams need a balance of pace, creativity, and strength. Not sure how so many teams manage to screw up that balance.

Need a Reus or a Pedro type player cutting in off the wing in my opinion.

Big money players them two though.
Yeah that's the problem, for me Nasri should be sold or be kept as a squad player he's just not elite. Silva is magical and in games like today it shows you just how far Nasri is off him.

Navas has beaten plenty of full backs but he cuts inside a lot. I think he has had a good season for us. Not sure he's an automatic starter but a very good signing
