The Premier League is truly back and ahead of another weekend's action FanDuel players must be wondering if it's safe to put West Ham players in.

FanDuel is a new kind of fantasy football that gives you more freedom of when to play to who you want in your side. A bad week has no effect on the other weeks as you can tear your selection up and start anew with the sole focus on winning the cash prizes on offer.

FanDuel also looks at how a footballer performs on the pitch not only through goals but things like passes and clearances.

Your player might not score many but if he passes teams off the pitch he could grab you some crucial FanDuel points. What's more, FanDuel will match your first deposit all the way up to £400 so now is a great time to start playing and getting your hands on some extra cash.

So, should you put West Ham players in? The club have had a pretty dour start to this season but one man has shone whilst the other's have let the fans down - Michail Antonio.

The right-sided player has four goals in four games making him the joint top scorer in the league and after his performance in Gameweek 2 against Bournemouth he duly ended up in the FanDuel team of the week, as well as laying the foundations for an England call up.

That week saw West Ham's only victory of the season so far but whilst the team have lost their way a bit since then, Antonio has gone from strength to strength.

He scored against Manchester City before a brace against Watford after the international break in a game the Hammers still conspired to lose. Nevertheless, Antonio once again returned to the FanDuel team of the week.

So, it's not all bad West Ham fans. If the rest of your team can match Antonio's exploits you'll be flying and as for FanDuel players, you'll be pretty happy too if you get the former Nottingham Forest man in your side.
