    Cha du ri is by far the fastest player we have every had, aparantley he can run 100m in under 11 seconds, now considering usain bolt holds the world record of 9.53 seconds, thats cha less than 2 seconds behind him???? didier was rapid as was bellamy but even they cant match that

    Rasmussen or Josh Thompson.

    At the moment it has to be McGinn or Cha Du-Ri.

    I know Agathe was a rocket, how quick was Bobby Petta?

    I remember cha using some of that speed against Man U and macheda once he was dispossessed had no idea where cha came from it was brilliant.

    Bertie Auld. Never saw anyone move so fast when someone like Sandy Jardine had the ball. Poor Sandy - spent most of the game looking up at the sky !!

    there was one season when he had better stats than zidane and figo for european competitions

    i always liked him once he got injured he never really came back to his usuals self and stopped trying to beat men on the wing the same could be said about alan thompson. Always thought he played well when he played more defensive as well

    he has an academy on an island somewhere cause some of the players were on trial at an spl team remember reading it recently

    Agathe was a * road runner.

    Still to see Cha in full pelt so i'll reserve my judgements on his speed.

    I see some people are saying Niall McGinn is like a bullet. I've never really seen him as a fast player, that surprised me.

    Agathe was a rocket....like theo walcott...except coming from RWB instead of RW

    Niall McGinn is quick as lightning too

    Camara was fast

    For some reason I have it in my head that Regi Blinker was fast....but cant really remember rightly


    Mulgrews reputation as a decent LB has been decelerating at an almighty pace :)

    I thought he had very little beyond his pace.

    He would run 40 yards like a nutter, stop, turn, then wonder what the * to do next, plus his crossing was terrible and he had absolutely no left foot.
