The 4-4-2 formation (or variations of it), whilst limiting in midfield, produced some incredible strike partnerships over the years. Aguero & Forlan, Henry & Bergkamp, Yorke & Cole to name a few.
Which two players that played at different times do you think would make the best partnership, or at least which would you most like to have seen? Personally, as an England man, I think Kane & Owen playing as a 2 up top would have been great to watch. They compliment each others styles well. Who would you pick?
I feel like Luis Suarez and R9 would be lethal. Absolutely no chance. Would’ve been monstrous.
Henry&aguero
Pele and Mbappe would be demonic
Lukaku and Werner.
Paddy Kluivert & Michael Owen
Would’ve loved to see Zlatan playing with Henry.
They already played together but I find it difficult to imagine a strike partnership that would be better than Romario and Ronaldo (R9)
Kane and R9
Oooof. Basically Son and Kane, except R9 instead of Son 🤯
Suarez and Torres
Gerrard would’ve finally got that Premier League title.
Haaland and Pele would be tough
CR7 and Messi the two best players ever
I don’t know why I didn’t think of this. Would’ve been mind blowing to watch.
It wouldn’t work well… And I base that solemnly on the fact that when you put two players with 20 in Creativity together on top in my manager game, it never works out :)
Kane and CF Messi
Crouch and Defoe
Already happened, and boy was it beautiful.
I think CR-7 and Messi would actually compliment each other greatly
Platini & Henry or Papin
