The Great Debate: What is the best partnership in PL history? | OneFootball

Kane to Son. Goal.

Rinse and repeat. The Tottenham pair have turned into the Premier League’s most dangerous double act this season, and it has us thinking: who formed the two-man partnership in the history of the Premier League?

They didn’t have the longevity, they didn’t win a Premier League title, but they’re the most devastating partnership I’ve think I’ve seen. It’s Luis Suárez and Daniel Sturridge.

In 110 combined appearances from the start of the 2012/13 to the end of 2013/14 the pair managed 85 goals and 27 assists. They were, for a time, completely unplayable and if we’re talking peak performance, I’d have them over anyone else on this list.

For me, I have to go defensively and with Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidić, the league’s best ever defensive partnership. They complemented each other perfectly, with Vidić as an aggressive defender with great physicality, ready to attack the first ball alongside Ferdinand who was comfortable in possession and quick when he needed to be.

In seven-and-a-half years together they won five Premier League titles, a Champions League and three League Cups; if that isn’t success, I don’t know what is!

Alex Mott

The correct answer here is Robert Pirès and Thierry Henry. For three seasons the Arsenal pair were virtually unstoppable, but it was the Invincibles campaign that cemented them as Premier League legends.

They scored and assisted 63 goals between them in that never-to-be-forgotten season, each one a mini-masterpiece.

This duo haunted my nightmares as a child, but now I can stand here as a fully grown man and partly responsible adult and appreciate the abilities of Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole.

Both players had the ability to drop and link up play for each other while also possessing the nous to be a real penalty box poacher.

The pair scored 53 goals between them on the way to Manchester United winning the title in the 1998/99 season, and that feat alone leaves them ahead of the rest.

Manchester United and referees, anyone? Although it may be a little one-sided.

So for that reason, I’m going with the famous SAS partnership of Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton which fired Blackburn Rovers to their only Premier League title.

In that memorable 1994/95 season, they scored 58 goals between them, 49 of those coming in the league as they blew everyone away.
