Fantasy Premier League: The 7 best budget strikers

Watford v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League
King looks sharp going into the new season

#1 Wilfried Zaha (£7) - Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace v Toulouse - Pre-Season Friendly
Zaha is currently one of highest selected forwards in the game

Another midfielder who was pushed into the striking role last season and has, as a result, been listed as a forward this year. Zaha was instrumental in helping Crystal Palace avoid the drop last season after they had a wretched start, losing the first 7 games.

He managed to score 9 goals and assisted 7 offering a total points return of 136. This has led the Palace man to be selected by a staggering 31% in the FPL currently. This could also be attributed to the Club's favourable run of opening fixtures.

While still not averse to being played on the wings, Zaha is Palace's chief creative and goalscoring threat. He is highly expected to raise his tally of attacking returns this season, and could very well make his price look like a bargain as the season progresses.
