16. Neil Taylor
Another Swansea defender makes the top twenty, Taylor reached 21.06mph this season.
15. Phil Jagielka
This entry really surprised us. The Everton centre-half is seemingly a lot quicker than he appears, clocking 21.07mph.
14. Danny Ings
21.11mph from the Burnley forward, no wonder Liverpool are interested.
13. Jason Shackell
Another Burnley player who's no slouch, 21.18mph at his fastest this season.
12. Ryan Bertrand
The Fantasy Football points machine is also pretty nippy, 21.18 mph from the Southampton defender.

The Spurs midfielder really is an all-round excellent footballer. Brilliant on the ball, great from set-pieces, covers lots of ground and is also one of the fastest in the league. 21.19mph from Eriksen
10. Jake Livermore
21.19mph from the Hull midfielder.
9. Jack Colback
The first of two Newcastle midfielders in the top ten, Colback has clocked 21.20mph this season.

He may be on course to suffer two consecutive relegations, but Caulker is running fast doing so. The QPR defender recorded 21.27mph at his fastest.
7. Jordan Henderson
21.30mph from Liverpool's vice captain. He's also leads the league in hops.
6. Nathaniel Clyne
The Southampton defender is the fastest defender on the list, recording 21.41mph.

The second oldest player in the top ten, the United captain clocked 21.42mph this season.
4. Ahmed Elmohamady
21.62mph from the Hull winger.

If only Sterling's contract negotiations could be resolved as quick, the Liverpool forward recorded 21.78mph at his fastest this season.
2. Stewart Downing
The 30 year old West Ham winger recorded an impressive 21.79mph this season.
1. Moussa Sissoko
22mph from the Newcastle midfielder, no player has ran as fast this season. It's as though Sissoko is looking to run away from St James Park.
