Fantasy Premier League: The 7 best budget strikers

#5 Marko Arnautovic (£7) - West Ham

Arnautovic looks unstoppable currently

The Austrian striker exploded with goals last season after being advanced on to the striker's position in the latter half of the season. Arnautovic scored 11 and provided 7 giving a total off 144 points. He has been as a result of that, listed as a striker this year in the FPL.

With a price that leans the mid-price segment but would be a great deal if the Hammers' striker continues his rich goalscoring form. Judging by the pre-season he looks to be well on his way to be doing just that. He has scored 5 goals while continuing to play in the centre-forward position.

New manager Manuel Pellegrini is a fan of attacking football and this is all the more optimistic for the striker and his current 23% ownership.

The only area of worry is West Ham' opening set of tough fixtures which loo. If Arnautovic can indeed get through these with a positive goalscoring return, expect his price and ownership to grow even further as the season wears on.
