Hes the fastest…
With current form..he is truly best center back now. Excellent physical, fast, excellent in the air and blocking. Most impressive thing is that every game he is very focused and consistent, rarely makes mistake.
He is excellent. No complaints. Really hope Napoli can keep him.
He doesn't have the pace? Thought he was the second fastest in the team after Oshimen?
He ain't slow mate
Hes quicker than most wingers
wtf are these guys talking about? Minaje's pace is top-notch… it's one of his greatest strengths!
Yes.
not quick enough???? do you even watch the game?
Saliba top speed recorded = 34.51 km/h (according to Arsenal) and Kim top speed = 34.21 km/h (according to UEFA)
What I am certain about, is that Kim is fast as Son Heung min.
Kim Min Jae is 5th fastest in whole league. What are you saying?
01:42 "He is not quick enough to play in back three"
02:16 "Apart from his pace, I think he has everything else."
02:45 "He doesn't have the pace, but he is everything else."
I know you didn't say he is slow, but you sure did emphasize that he doesn't have pace, which is not true.
You could've said, he is fast enough, but not lighting fast like Mbappe.
When it comes to center-backs, he is truly Asia's finest.
Whats with the pic choice? 😂😂😂😂😂
better than pan jik
One of you don't know shlet!
i see/hear lots of PL fans saying kim is doing well because he is playing in serie A. obviously, those fools never watched the monster actually play.
