Fantasy Premier League Tips: 15 Best Point-Scoring Midfielders For 2017/18

14. Manuel Lanzini

Club: West Ham

Cost: £7m

Though he will have to compete with Arnautovic this season as West Ham's most creative player (as the Hammers continue to seek a player to stand in properly for Dimitri Payet), Lanzini proved last season that he's capable of popping up with a good few goals and assists.

The Argentinian scored an impressive 8 goals, assisted 3 more and created a total of 56 chances in his 35 games, as well as firing in a total of 69 shots (nice!). And bear in mind, this was for an under-performing West Ham side who scored only 47 goals in total and were in the relegation picture for some time.

Assuming they'll be improved not least by Arnautovic but also the clinical edge of Javier Hernandez (only Andy Carroll scored more than 1 last year in terms of strikers, ridiculously), Lanzini's stats should also improve massively. He's the kind of bet you ought to take.
