If there's one stat that is arguably more important than any other in FIFA games it's pace. Some of the game's best OVR players wouldn't make it into most people's FIFA Ultimate Teams because they lack pace – Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos, for example.
Also, when you're building your FIFA Ultimate Team, there may be players who look like they might not be all that, but are worth getting in your squad thanks to their pace. Preston North End's right winger Tom Barkhuizen was only rated at 69 in FIFA 18, but had 93 pace – valuable when you might not have many coins to play with at the start of the game.
So, study this list of the 20 fastest players in FIFA 19 carefully, and try to get some of them in your squad.

Who should be in your FIFA Ultimate Team?
If you're building a dream team, Gareth Bale should be your right winger – he only has one mark less than Mbappé for pace, but brilliant shooting stats (88). Mbappé's not a bad option off the bench though! The likes of Sané, Mané and Aubameyang could count themselves unfortunate not to be in the squad.
If you don't have as much to spend, Wolves winger Adama Traore and Preston's Tom Barkhuizen would rip it up on either side of the pitch. You could throw in Rayo Vallecano's Peruvian right-back Luis Advíncula for a ridiculously pacy right flank.
As you win more games and earn enough money to be able to buy players in the early 80s, Bayern Munich's Kingsley Coman is your man for left-midfield, although we'd love to find a space for Leon Bailey in our side, too. Atletico Madrid's Gelson Martins would be worth buying to play on the right of midfield.
