Genuine Pace

I’m guessing it’s pace that you’ve had to work on, during development. We’re as a player with “genuine pace” is something they were genetically born with. I think. Good question, if a serious one. Be good to see what others make of it.

Well my guess was Fukin boring.:tumbleweed:
 
There are different types of 'pace' imo. For example, Ivan Perisic's goal against England was pace of thought that allowed him to get in before walker and poke the ball home. Then you have players like Sterling who are very hard to keep up with when chasing back towards your own goal so they force you to just pump the ball out for a throw in.
 



Pace by any player born outside France or the former French colonies.

French-speaking Belgians may or may not count, I'm not sure yet.

Mbappe and Dembele are the acceptable face of genuine pace.
 
As a serious answer: I'd say Kyle Walker is probably the quickest player in a 30m in the England squad, but Raheem Sterling is probably sharper/quicker to react and has a sharper 5m burst...

What am I talking about the pic of the chap from Hale & Pace was the best answer.
 
My biggest concern going into this season is that the squad, again, lacks any pace. Nobody that can stretch teams, nobody that can take a man on, nobody making the runs in behind. It was alleviated somewhat last year by the emergence of David Brooks, who we missed enormously when he was injured. Now we’ve sold him I just don’t see where it’s going to come from. Really hope we manage to get a couple of quick players in, it makes such a difference.

I think over 50/100 metres Walker would beat anyone, it would have been interesting to see a race between him & John Pemberton at his peak, he had a natural sprinters action & was also very quick; perhaps too quick, as he relied on his pace to much & as such he was often out of position.
