8. Daniel Sturridge and Luis Suarez – Liverpool

Sturridge and Suarez are one of the Top 10 Premier League Strike Partnerships

In modern Premier League football, it is rare to find a strike partnership because a lot of teams use lone strikers now and play 4-3-3 or 4-5-1 rather than the old conventional 4-4-2 formation.

However, during the 2013/2014 season, Brendan RodgersLiverpool played two up front and what a two it was.

Daniel Sturridge and Luis Suarez. The duo made up two thirds of the SAS, with Raheem Sterling finishing the trio, and their goal-scoring nature guided The Reds to a second-placed finish in the Premier League.

It was the season Liverpool should have won their first ever Premier League title, but a costly loss to Chelsea and a disastrous collapse to Crystal Palace ended their hopes.

During that campaign however, Suarez netted 31 goals, whilst Sturridge banged in 20.

Sadly for the strikers though, it wasn’t enough to win the title and Suarez left the following year in order to complete a mega-money move to FC Barcelona.
