The Usain Bolt era might be over, but the Manchester United fan will love the fact that - in the Premier League at least - the sprint kings of the new season are in United shirts.
Because as new stats from Opta show, both Romelu Lukaku and Paul Pogba set the standard for speed in the 2017/18 campaign by both recording a rapid top speed of 21.5mph in United's 4-0 win over West Ham on Sunday .
The duo - both firm friends off the pitch - each reached the same top pace at Old Trafford, which was 0.1mph faster than Arsenal sub Theo Walcott clocked against Leicester.
For comparison's sake, it should be noted that Bolt - who retired from athletics after last week's World Championships in London - reached a top speed of 27.8mph when he broke the 100 metres world record in Berlin in 2009.
His average speed over that race was 23.35mph.
And Lukaku and Pogba weren't the only Manchester United players to fire the speed gun into action over the opening weekend of the Premier League season, either.
The full list of speeds over 21mph clocked by Premier League stars over the weekend looks like this:

So will this new-look, quicker United prove difficult to keep up with in the Premier League this season?
Catch them if you can.
