10 Deadliest Strike Partnerships In Premier League History

Leicester City's improbable triumph in 2016 was undoubtedly the result of an enormous collective spirit, but the menacing strike combination of Jamie Vardy and Riyadh Mahrez was the driving factor.

Both the Foxes marksmen were in top form throughout the campaign, and accounted for an incredible 41 goals out of the 68 that the team scored overall en route to the title!

The amazing camaraderie between Vardy and Mahrez was particularly crucial to Leicester's fortunes against the top shouts as they lost just thrice in the games to the traditional 'big six'.

The ex-England international's tally of 24 goals was bettered only by Harry Kane, while he also surpassed Ruud van Nistelrooy's record for scoring in the most consecutive games with 12 on the bounce.

Meanwhile, Mahrez was voted as PFA's Player of the Year for his incredible contribution of 17 goals and 10 assists.
