3. Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton – Blackburn Rovers
When Blackburn won their one and only Premier League title to date in the 1994/95 season – which seems a long way off for the Championship side now – it was largely due to the original ‘SAS’.
Shearer would continue in this rich vein of goal-scoring form for many years with Newcastle United, whilst Sutton moved on to Chelsea and later Celtic.
However, in the English top tier things never really got any better than this achievement back in the mid-1990s.
