Top forwards are essential and probably the most critical piece of any Fantasy Premier League team but choosing the wrong players might drive you in a different direction.  Here is a quick guide on five forwards you can pick for your Fantasy Premier League team:

Harry Kane - £12,5 

The king of Fantasy Football, Hary Kane has to be an indispensable part of your squad if you want to survive in this game. The Tottenham center-forward delivered a total of 217 points last season and was 3rd overall, right behind midfielders Sterling and Salah. Having just won The Golden Boot with six goals to his World Cup account, Kane will undoubtedly be eager to build on what was an impressive summer for him and his teammates from the national squad. You have to trust me on this! Pick Harry Kane!

Pierre-Erick Aubameyang - £11 m

The Arsenal striker is yet to show his abilities as he prepares to kick off his first full season with the Gunners. The Auba-Lacazzete partnership reminds a bit of Suarez-Sturridge from 2015 where almost every Fantasy player had either one or both of them in their teams. However, despite the latter being £1,5 m cheaper, Auba is the one who will be given the nod up front with Lacazette driving on the left-hand side. With Arsenal showing signs of playing high pressing and fast, attacking the football in pre-season, under new manager Emery, this could be the perfect opportunity for Aubameyang to add at least 20 Premier League goals to his rich portfolio.

Marko Arnautovic - £7 m

The Austrian striker will be keen to repay the faith of 26,3% of Fantasy Football managers and take West Ham to the old winning routes. Arnautovic finished last season with 144 points, only 25 less than Sergio Aguero for example, or just 18 few than Romelu Lukaku at Manchester United. The former Stoke forward was the main reason West Ham escaped relegation and survived in the Premier League. His ability to play with both feet and head makes him one of the deadliest strikers in the whole league. £7 m looks like a real bargain.   

Wilfred Zaha - £7 m

The Crystal Palace midfielder, now forward, has scored 18 goals during his two campaigns with The Eagles in the Premier League. His impressive dribbling and finishing skills caught the eye of the top clubs such as Tottenham and Chelsea among the others. Zaha picked up remarkable 285 points in his last two seasons and is ready to add much more in the account of Fantasy Football managers this campaign. Same as Arnautovic, Zaha looks a real bargain for only £7 m.

Chris Wood– £6.5 m

The Burnley forward had an exciting first season with the club, netting ten goals in only 24 Premier League appearances.

Having formed a marvelous partnership with Sam Vokes, Wood would be hungry to add a dozen more to his notable footballing career. Posing a threat to the opposition, especially on corners and free kicks, Chris Wood might be just the cheap forward you are looking for your team.
