Tottenham Hotspur fans may be surprised to hear that Dejan Kulsevski has now got the best running stats in the Premier League this season.

The Spurs man tops the distance covered across all games thus far in the league and also boasts the record in a single match.

Just goes to show how deceptive what we see can be. I would have thought Udogie and Porro comfortably covered more ground.

Very first sentence of that article vindicated!

It’s semi irrelevant how far his run, how fast and how intense and how intelligent?

Interestingly, when asked to name the *fastest Spurs player over 100m,* Deki named Destiny first (not a surprise) but named HIMSELF as second-fastest. Kid's not a braggart, so one wonders ...

... maybe SC experts know less than they think.

We've had the discussion in other threads as well. Difference between being fast at 100m versus 20m and what is usually most valuable for a footballer.
Larger players likely to be faster when allowed distance to reach top speed, smaller players usually faster at short distance.
David Bentley was faster than Aaron Lennon at 100m
