Marko Arnautovic has carried his West Ham side literally single-handedly out of the relegation zone this season.

The Hammers' #7 has been the go-to guy for his club to score goals and provide some attacking flair in the final third.

The Austrian forward has scored 5 goals and assisted 1 more in his 9 appearances for the East London club in the Premier League so far.

He has been involved in roughly 50 percent of all goals scored by The Hammers, thus he is playing his role as the #7 perfectly.


#3 Antoine Griezmann

Antoine Griezmann, one of the best performing players at the World Cup for France this summer, has had a modest start to the new season with Atletico Madrid.

He has scored 3 goals and provided 2 assists in 11 LaLiga appearances, which is clearly not up to his lofty standards, but thanks to a sturdy defense, Atletico Madrid find themselves in third position.

The Frenchman is yet to hit full steam, and Diego Simeone would like his #7 to step up soon to solve their lack of goals up front.
