Who was our fastest player I think Tawse, or possibly Izquierdo but some may say Franco Massimo who although being a Sussex sprint champion wasnt a regular first teamer..

Another who was a sprinter to the exclusion of everything else was Dave Armstrong. Speedy winger who I can't recall crossing a ball!

Kurt Nogan was like a whippet on speed.....

Eye from the sky
Phil Stant looked fast in slow motion
Yeah, this came up a few months ago. Armstrong was the fastest I recall....totally useless as a footballer but really, really pacy.
Reckon Izquierdo is faster though

Or KLL with Nandos!
Kanchelskis.
José quite possibly.
In terms of actually USING their pace, to any useful end, the best in my 30+ years was Will Buckley (before he lost faith in his paper hamstrings). Devastating

Alan Duffy always looked very fast - but that might have been because he was quite a well-built lad, and at top speed it looked as if he might have had a great deal of difficulty stopping quickly!
Sidwell, Obika, Paul Clark, Aspinall. All lightning quick.
