Revealed: Our fastest player in 2020/21
Many of our goals this season came from fast breaks into opposition territory and it'd be hard to decide just who United's quickest player is. Carefully collated stats, though, show us exactly who it was in the 2020/21 season.
Some would predict it to be our Wales international Daniel James who can often be seen charging down the wing at breakneck speeds, leaving defenders in his wake. However, although he is one of eight different players to top the list for a specific game, one of his team-mates dominates the final chart.
Marcus Rashford clocked the four fastest times in the Opta stats - coincidentally in the two games against Chelsea and two matches with Leeds United.
