Gareth Bale of Real Madrid is the fastest player in the World when running with the ball, reaching a speed of 36.9 km per hour, and he is followed by the 22-year old Damm, capable of reaching 35.25 km per hour with the ball at his feet.

Gareth has surprised everyone by coming out to top the list of the ten fastest footballers in possession of the ball, ahead of Super stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi;

In fact you have to go down the list as far as number five to find Ronaldo, while the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth positions are occupied by Messi, Wayne Rooney, Franck Ribéry and Sergio Ramos, respectively.

robben broke a record at world cup against spain. he got 37km/h. only about 7km less than us a in bolt. messi overtook ronaldo at beginning of season against elche. even marca.com made an article about messi's speed record. I don't know if bale recently got 36km/h but robben is still the world's fastest player

*modified* I'm got a new info through google that robben didn't reach the 37km/h mark but it was so much a rumour that it even got on FIFA's site. not confirmed tho

marca seems confused

article A : However, what the Argentine (messi) lacks in application,
he makes up for in raw speed. No one in the
'Azulgranas' ranks has run faster than Messi this
term. The forward laid down a marker in the
opening league fixture of the season, against
Elche, scampering across the turf at 34.47 km per
hour, a mark neither he nor anyone else has been
able to better.

article B : Lionel Messi: 32.5 km/h.

This is the list of fastest players 'with the ball at their feet'

This list basically means nothing considering its strangeness. Having people like Antonio Valencia and Aaron Lennon at 3 amd 4 respectively, two wingers I consider to be utterly garbage when it comes to end product. Of wat use is running fast with the ball when there is no result? Having Ramos at No.10 makes it all d more laughable..bt hey its statistics so we can all have a good laugh together abt it.
