Disappointing!

[DangerBlades]

Cant see any signings before saturday now, the lack of pace is unbelievable for the championship.

The lack of 'p's' in the title of this thread disappoints me.

Tap in.

 

[DangerBlades]

Got me on that one

 

[8lade]

Tap in.

Got to take the easy ones too, I don't want to end up like Tony Yeboah.

2/10 must try harder.

We didn't have much pace last season & seemed to do okay...

 

[snootyfenooty]

We haven't had any Pace since 1964.

League 1 pace compared to the championship is a different story. IMO

League 1 pace compared to the championship is a different story. IMO

Wednesday had no pace last season and still reached the play-offs.
It all depends on style of play regards how important pace is.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Which teams have more pace....and name the player and position.

Lafferty is very quick apparently. So are you saying you must have fast players up front?
And it's said the first few yards are in the head.

Our team breaks as quick as anyone. The super quick forwards that would make the difference are too expensive. So our team is designed to be successful without that outright pace.

It will change when we get that player....which will happen one day.

This pace thing is a load of bollocks. What is important is acceleration over 5 yards. Ask your dad about Stanley Mathews for an explanation of this.

A Paul Coutts slide rule pass moves faster than any man on the planet.

True. But as much as i hate to admit it, theyve got proven championship goalscorers. We are counting on billy to do a repeat of last season and i somehow dont see it.

Where's the logic in this?

Are you suggesting that the lower the league the slower the players are? If so, by the time you've got down to the Norther Premier League the players will be going backwards!

So it's not about pace? It's about having proven Championship goalscorers?

That's how it works on computer games. Is that not the case in real life?

I'd say a few standout pacey players in the division are:-

Kodjia (Villa)
Adomah (Villa)
Traore (Boro)
Hernandez (Hull)
Sessegnon (Fulham)
Aluko (Fulham)
Ariyibi (Forest)
Sakho (Leeds)
Hogan (Villa)
Henry (Brentford)
Costa (Wolves)
Little (Bolton)
Harris (Cardiff)

No im not suggesting that but there is a difference, not just in the pace of a player but the pace of everything. You dont get as much time on the ball in the championship.

Aah Stan Matthews. He'd be getting ready to accelerate for five yards past the left back, drop his right shoulder and the right back would fall over, do a shimmy and the centre half and goalkeeper would collide.......

Is this actually true or is it just one of those things people say?

Except Ariyibi, he plays for MK Dons, in league 1...

Biggest cert for relegation since .... Well......erm ..... somebody really shit was relegated .

Pull thi finger art Wilder , that' wi big boys nar

Brookes (Sheffield United)

Do you mean Brooks or Booker Kozzy. Because Ooh Aah wasn't that quick.

I'm suggesting exactly that. The pace of a non league game is much slower than the championship.

What's a generation or two between friends!

The pace of play is different to the pace of a player. I'm assuming the OP meant the pace of a player (i.e. how quickly a person runs) as they talked about signing players with pace.

I've seen players in Sunday league who were lightning quick.

 

[SteveBlade]

You never see a fucker just run past players and leave them standing unless they're elite players with the ball control and dribbling ability to fully take advantage.

Some twat who plays for Ipswich isn't going to pick up the ball and Garth Bale it down the wing.
