As the international break comes to an end today, the English Premier League action will continue by weekend and we just can’t wait for it. On whether the players will return firing on all cylinders or a little sluggish due to fatigue, we’d have to wait and see. And while we wait, let’s take a quick look at the top 7 fastest goals in the English Premier League so far.
