Bale was saying yesterday that walcott is faster than him


http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11675_6485668,00.html

I wouldnt be so sure- reckon it would be tight enough over 100 metres

Is Walcott the fastest player in the epl?
It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it

walcott is deffo the fastest over shorter distances 10,20,30 mts
but when bale gets going he has some gallop on him,could possibily beat him over 100mts
must be other fast lads out there?

They had a speed camera at the wc and he was clocked doing 20mph- faster than any other player at the wc- fairly easy to work that one out

Any body got any times over the 100m?
 
Apparantely Dennis Rommedalh ran approx 10.4 over the 100
I doubt many would beat that time TBH.

Rommedahl used to be lightning fast alright, same as Overmars in his day.
 
Le Cheat was also quite fast on the 100m in his days at Arsenal.

Does'nt say how they gathered those stats.
Apart from
The top speeds have been calculated by Castrol using data captured over two seasons.

yeah i cant take them seriously either
 
in a 100m sprint of all premier league players Sol Campbell wouldn't hav been in the top 50 last season never mind 2nd.
Fabregas isn't the quickest either and is in the top 10 on this 'Castrol GTX' list
