1. Gareth Barry - Everton (29.4 km/h)
Gareth Barry is a well-known figure among fans of the Premier League. Having played across multiple seasons for various clubs, he has consistently made his mark and is always considered for a starting role. Now 35, his speed has noticeably decreased (29.4 km/h), but manager Ronald Koeman continues to rely on Barry's experience and leadership on the field.

2. Lucas Leiva - Liverpool (29.37 km/h)
Lucas Leiva was expected to leave Liverpool for Inter Milan, but the Brazilian midfielder was retained. His only goal scored against Plymouth demonstrated why manager Klopp chose to keep him. However, to secure a regular spot in the first team, Lucas must work on improving his speed, especially as Liverpool's style of play heavily relies on fitness and pace.

3. Olivier Giroud - Arsenal (29.19 km/h)
Olivier Giroud's heading ability is quite impressive. At times, he has to be mentioned when he scores a spectacular 'scorpion kick' against Crystal Palace or his injury-time goal against Bournemouth to secure a point for Arsenal. Although he plays as a striker, his speed is not one of his strengths. This is an area Giroud likely needs to improve to better connect with fast players like Sanchez, Walcott, or Ozil.

4. Shaun Maloney - Hull City (28.87 km/h)
Shaun Maloney is a Scottish attacking midfielder. Despite his small frame, his speed is relatively slow (28.87 km/h). Age has likely taken its toll on the 33-year-old, who now plays for Hull City and is frequently used as a substitute.

5. Francesc Fabregas - Chelsea (28.73 km/h)
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has a highly effective central midfield pairing of Matic and Kante. Additionally, when one of them is unavailable, Fabregas provides a perfect substitute. Known for his exceptional passing skills, Fabregas has never been known for his speed (28.73 km/h), and his tackling ability also lags behind that of Kante and Matic. This is one of the reasons he is often not included in the starting lineup.

6. Peter Crouch - Stoke City (28.58 km/h)
Peter Crouch is rarely seen using speed to outpace opponents. However, this doesn't mean he's not a threat. With his long stride, towering 2.02-meter height, and solid heading ability, the 'Giant Crane' is especially dangerous in aerial duels. Even at the age of 35, Crouch has managed to score 3 goals for Stoke City this season.

7. Charlie Adam - Stoke City (26.72 km/h)
Charlie Adam's most successful playing years were during his time at Blackpool in 2011 before moving to Liverpool. Adam is known for his unusual left foot, capable of delivering long, precise passes and powerful long-range shots. Although he has slowed down since his peak, his declining speed has pushed him into a more defensive role, often dropping deeper to assist with defending.

8. Andy King - Leicester City (29.7 km/h)
Andy King is the only player in Leicester City's current squad who played under manager Ian Holloway, having experienced relegation in the 2007/08 season and promotion the following year. He has remained with the club through tough times and is now a key figure in the midfield. While his speed may be lacking, King's contributions are undeniable, thanks to his sharp footballing mind and exceptional passing ability.

9. Craig Gardner - West Brom (29.62 km/h)
Craig Gardner is a passionate midfielder, but at 29 years old, he has noticeably lost his pace. It seems he can no longer keep up with the tempo of matches. The former Sunderland player now spends most of his time on the bench, rarely getting a chance to feature in games.

10. Hal Robson Kanu - West Brom (29.49 km/h)
Robson Kanu became widely known after scoring a stunning goal against Belgium in the Euro 2016 quarterfinals. His remarkable skill to bypass the Belgian defense and a clinical finish left goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois with no chance. After joining West Brom this season, Kanu has struggled to secure a starting spot due to his lack of pace (29.49 km/h) and fierce competition from the in-form Rondon. To earn more playing time, Kanu will need to work on improving his speed.
