There is no doubt that Everton have had an underwhelming start to the season, considering the talent of Ronald Koeman on the byline and also the homecoming of Everton's own Wayne Rooney. Much was expected of the toffees but they failed to deliver and maybe inevitably so, after failing to fill the boots Romelu Lukaku left behind.

Additionally, the managerial situation also isn't doing the team any favours but their dramatic win against Watford in GW11 might just be the push they needed to kick-start their season.

Even with players like Wayne Rooney in the same lineup as him, Oumar Niasse has shined brighter than any other Everton player so far. Despite being introduced as late as GW6, Niasse has bagged 4 goals, including his crucial strike at Goodison last weekend.

While he might not have had a lot of play time in the past, he seems to be earning the trust of the Everton boss and featured the whole 90 minutes against Watford.

For a meagre price of just 4.9, you can get yourself a forward who has managed to score four times in just 287 minutes.

Even though Everton's form cannot be trusted, their upcoming fixtures are very inviting and an investment in their top striker seems very tempting.
