    Not even gonna touch on his goal last night (but the way I celebrated was to run around my house screaming his name while, and I quote my brother here, "flapping your arms like an excited five year old getting a Barbie for Xmas") or his position/role in the club.

    BUT

    Did anyone else think he could reasonably be considered the joint 3rd fastest player in the E.P.L. this season?

    Personally I'm gobsmacked, flabbergasted and lost for works? Not sure if this was him after he scored the goal last night or what but no way did I see him move that quick yesterday?http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...-SunFootballSocial-_-329586772-_-Imageandlink

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but there was one moment when he had to run back to chase a ball ahead of Martial and appeared to motor then. Still dumbstruck, mind.

    True and Martial topped the ratings last night so it could have been the same phase of play?

    I was just thinking of that very moment. Martial had a good head start on him and he closed him down as if Martial was treading water. An amazing burst of speed so maybe he really does have good pace when he wants to.

    That is what it looked like. Then you realise that Graham Carr was up in the stands with his hand down his pants giving him the "one that got away" look. Enough to take any man out of their stride.

    Third fastest at running away from Graham Carr possibly.
