baines barkley beckford all quick as ****, in defense jagielka can recover incredibly quickly. osman's reasonably quick.

we might have a few fast players but...........
we tap it side-ways for a while then slowly edge up the pitch, allowing the opposition to settle into a comfy armchair while we cluelessly stroll up blind alleys before giving them the ball back. not a great tactic me thinks. oh and btw fck off moyles you pr1ck

Im struggling to think of one. With the exception of Beckford its an area where we have been sorely lacking for some time.

There isn't one mate we are the slowest!

I think our passing is so laboured and predictable that it makes it look slower than we actually are. Plus most of them don't think to actually run.

Give me some of these ffs, and I'll make you faster

I don't think we're that slow.

I think our build up play is slow and our movement sucks.

Trying to pass it around with Barcelona, but without the movement off the ball. Agreed 100%.

Distin, Coleman and Becks are quick. But yeah we are a slow team. Need a quick winger... (Lets not go there).

Got to be one of the slowest. You noticed that the most at Blackburn -build up and passing ponderous - we where like the 'chuckle Brothers - to me to you !!!!!

Blackburn Rovers.
Bolton Wanderers.

That junior Hoilett showed a turn of speed to turn Neville inside out on Saturday in the second half. Funnily enough it got me thinking at the time, we have no-one with pace like that in our team, our we the slowest team in the premiership? and then someone starts this thred.

swap neville for hibbo and its sorted.

The opposing team always manage to get all their players back during an Everton attack. Possibly due to the fact that Everton attack with the speed of continental drift. Other teams seem to go from defence into shooting at goal like a sports car...0-60 in 4secs. Evertons "defence-to-attack" timescale is like my Fiesta..0-60 ...eventually
