sorry, never actually too many of the posts on this thread. Others pretty much have mentioned the same point in raised.

I have no idea of any times of footballers over distances. Just going on a visual impression I would say Marc Overmars would beat Arjen Robben in a sprint over any distances up to 100 metres. Robben just does not look that fast. I am sure he is but his strength seems more than he can run with a ball that seems glued to his feet. Its easy to look fast going past a static player which Robben does a lot because of his dribbling skills.

if a quick footballer trained to run 100m then he would break 11 seconds with ease
but 10.5 is pretty quick gemili was running these times without 100 % training for athletics and was even better over 200m, which is even more remarkable, imo |

Italian footballers are the quickest in the world there's no doubt about it. And so are their troops.
They only had to hear the bagpipes in East Africa during WW2 and they were off like rats down a sewer. |

If you were using a 100 metre distance for testing a footballers speed it would be an exercise which would have little relevance.
I would expect most of the fastest footballers over 100 metres would also be black. |

So Slippy's view that Ronaldo could break the 10 sec barrier without much difficulty is wide of the mark?

The two wingers at my school were in the England rugby under 19 squad with me and were breaking 10.50.

Slippy stop talking BS. You sound like a playground child as well as being the worlds fastest hooker!

I highly doubt I was the worlds quickest hooker. I never said as much, please copy and paste where I said that. Sean Fitztgerald would have taken me out I would have thought.
