Although the pair had been team-mates at United since 2004, the blossoming partnership truly came to fruition at the start of the 2006/07 season.The two men had returned from World Cup 2006 to persistent talk of ill-feeling between them following that infamous Ronaldo wink after Rooney was shown red against Portugal.Instead the pair combined for a number of important goals, including memorable strikes such as the counter attack finish against Bolton, as United won the league title for three consecutive years.Rooney and Ronaldo helped United win three titles in a row11

Old Trafford has witnessed many great players and in Giggs and Cantona they had two of the very best.The flying Welsh winger proved to be the perfect foil for the charismatic Frenchman and together they were integral to Uniteds success in the mid 90s, until Cantona abruptly called it a day in 1997.Cantona (L) and Giggs (trophy) combined to help United dominate the Premier League11

7. Nolberto Solano and Alan Shearer (Newcastle United) 22 goals

5= Thierry Henry and Freddie Ljungberg (Arsenal) 24 goals

When Ljungberg left Arsenal for West Ham in 2007, he cited Henrys move to Barcelona as reason to make a decision on his own future.At their peak, the pair were unplayable – Henry setting up 15 goals while getting nine in return – and their form in the 2001/02 season took the Gunners to a second Premier League trophy under Arsene Wenger.Henry and Ljungberg won two league titles together at Arsenal11

5= Steve McManaman and Robbie Fowler (Liverpool) 24 goals

A gangly, nimble midfielder, McManaman, along with Giggs, was one of the most exciting wide men in the early era of the Premier League and his combination with striker Fowler, (McManaman assisted for Fowler to finish 20 times) made Liverpool one of the most exciting teams to watch.The pair became synonymous with the Reds attractive brand of football under then manager Roy Evans.The duo were part of an exciting Liverpool team in the 90’s11

4. David Silva and Sergio Aguero (Manchester City) 25 goals
