Sometimes two players just click. They’re on the same wavelength and seem to always know where the other one is.
Shearer and Sutton. Yorke and Cole. Henry and Pires. When a partnership like that happens, the goals follow.
Today, we want to put the spotlight on the creators in these partnerships. Without them and their selflessness, football would be a barren, goalless wasteland of people trying their luck from 30 yards.
We’ve found the 25 most fruitful partnerships in the Premier League this season – and just want you to name the player who provides the assists in each one. We’re giving you the scorer, number of goals and five minutes on the clock – and all you need to do is give us the provider.
Challenge your mates and let us know how you get on at @FourFourTwo. Good luck!
