10. Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge

The SAS dynamic duo would have been much higher in this list. However, had they played together for a period any longer than one and a half seasons, before Suarez decided to move to Barcelona this late spring. they surely would be a massive threat in the Premier League right now.

The strikers did however, threatened Premier League defences with their splendid connection up front and Liverpool’s second-place standing last season was generally ascribed to the 52 goals scored by the couple (31 by Suarez and 21 by Sturridge). 

9. Andy Cole and Peter Beardsley

In spite of their impressive scoring run last season, Suarez and Sturridge were not able to beat the record for the most number of goals scored by a strike duo in an EPL season. Also this record still stays with Cole and Beardsley for Newcastle United in the 1993-94 season with 55 goals between them (34 by Cole and 21 by Beardsley). The two worked with one another very well, Especially with Beardsley‘s imaginative ball skills connecting admirably with Cole‘s clinical finishing ability.

8. Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton

 

The first and original SAS, Shearer and Sutton built a solid strike organization at Blackburn Rovers in the 1994-95 season which won the Premier League title for the club. The late spring of 1994 saw a youthful Sutton joining Rovers from Norwich for a record £5 million. This choice by administrator Kenny Dalglish paid rich profits as the SAS pair scored 49 goals (34 by Shearer, 15 by Sutton) between them to seal Rovers‘ first association title since 1914

7. Mateja Kezman and Arjen Robben

 

This dynamic duo was nicknamed “Batman and Robben” as Arjen Robben created the most of the 81 goals that Kezman scored over the three seasons while at PSV. Their outstanding performances meant that big-money moguls Chelsea came knocking at the door, with the hopes that the duo would recreate the same magic in EPL as well.

6. Raul and Fernando Morientes

These two boys scored an astonishing 277 goals between them while at Real Madrid, all in inbetween 1997 and 2003, during which the club won three Champions League titles and two La Liga titles. The duo played up front for the Spain International Squad in the 2002 World Cup Competition and impressed everyone with their amazing performances before the side was knocked out by the hosts South Korea.

5. Michael Laudrup and Hristo Stoichkov

Laudrup’s dribbling skills and amazing goal-scoring chances led to the well known phrase “Made in Laudrup” being coined, and Stoichkov developed a brilliant understanding with Michael Laudrup and was very good at getting onto the end of chances that Laudrup created and finishing nicely with a goal.

4. Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp

The deadly duo of Dennis Bergkamp and Thierry Henry played together for over six years and scored over a massive 200 goals between them as Arsenal went onto win two Premier League titles, not to mention the famous unbeaten Invincibles run in 2003-04.

3. Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres

These two became a force in the season in which Liverpool finished second in the Premier league, and enjoyed an impressive run in the Champions League. With then Boss Rafa Benitez adapting a 4-2-3-1 formation, Steven Gerrard played in the CAM position right behind Torres, The deadly duo could read each other like a book becoming a dominate force in the league.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney

With Sir Alex Ferguson giving these two free reign, the deadly duo took the premier league by storm,  The 07-08 Premier League season saw Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney  score 60 goals across all competitions between them, with Ronaldo scoring a staggering  42 goals.

1. Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta

The large amount of trophies that Barcelona won in the last decade can easily be thanks to Xavi and Iniesta, their ability to control  the games from the midfield, and with their co-ordination with each other, the two by far will go down as the deadliest duo in world football.
