I have no idea, but they’ve both been clocked at a higher top speed than the NFL player you mentioned.
It’s quite likely that they haven’t timed a 100m sprint since their school days.

It's fine, you keep throwing insults, I don't need them.
And I quote
I don't need excuses for why The U.S. has won the most gold medals and medals in general. That's not debatable. That is an objective fact. Trying to determine why the U.S. has been the most successful, that my friend is debatable.
It’s also worth pointing out that obviously the cardiovascular demands of guys playing in wide positions in real football are much heavier than any position in American football, covering an approximate average of 12km per game.

Head in the sand son, head in the sand.
I stand by my comment - only a retard would ignore the size of a population when looking at a country’s efficiency at producing top level athletes.

Do you have any actual numbers on their speed?

As I said, they’re doing this while covering about 12km per game on average, while dribbling a football. It’s simply outstanding.
The most telling thing here is how many are actually surprised by the fact that real footballers fucking rapid <45>

& only someone losing an the debate resorts to name calling instead of refuting the points being made.

There is nothing to refute lad. You literally haven’t made a valid point that I’ve seen yet.
A per capita analysis is simply a more valid way of examining the efficiency of a country of producing Olympic gold calibre athletes than wilfully ignoring population statistics.

Tyreek Hill's best 100m would be enough to qualify for most olympics.
Hill is faster.
Bale and Robben are not this fast.
Except, in reality, as I’ve demonstrated, he isn’t.
Genuine question - what is it with people being presented facts here a willfully ignoring them?

What's with people who present absolute proof of a statement (I did it with Tyreek Hill) with people who provide a link with what is not a proven time as a counter?
Can't you just admit you're wrong when you're wrong?
Tyreek Hill top speed - 36.4km/h
Arken Robben top speed - 37km/h
Arjen Robben isn’t considered to be the fastest footballer, is in his 30’s, clocked that speed while covering a distance greater than Hill runs in an entire season, and was dribbling a ball with his feet.

So no actual measured speed. Got it.
John Ross for the Cincinatti Bengals actually matched Usain Bolts 40 time with a 4.22. Bo Jackson beat Usain Bolts 40 time with 4.13. & Jakeem Grant ran a 4.10 in college. Actual measured times.
You asked me which footballer was faster than Tyreek Hill. I gave you two footballers who have clocked higher top speeds.
What the fuck do you want son?
It ain’t my fault you didn’t expect that and have since moved to looking at time over distance, is it?
sake man
I’ll give you guys a little hint: the difference in speed between Hill and Bale is fairly negligible. They’re both extremely fast individuals, and in a straight race environment it could well be a photo finish.
What is telling, is how much that simple fact surprises you. You’ve been led to believe that nobody can match these American Fatball athletes, and the disbelief that plenty of others actually can is clear to see.

What i'm saying is no pro diveball player has cracked 10 seconds in the 100m, to which you still haven't given any real proof.
Are Robben and Bale extremely fast? Yes. Are they as fast or faster than Tyreek Hill? No.
But that’s what you’re saying now - not what you originally said.
My original ‘proof’ was in reference to your original point, as you would expect.
Real footballers don’t run 100m times or 40 yard dash times, so I’ve no idea what you expect me to provide.
I’ve looked at the only comparable measure I could fine - top speed - and given you two names faster than Hill.
