During the January transfer window, Marko Arnautovic was heavily linked with a move away from the club, but West Ham refused all tempting offers thrown at them.
The 30-year-old was superb against Southampton and scored twice to take his goal tally to nine in the Premier League. He has further four assists to his name as well.
The Austrian opened the scoring in the 16th minute, and added another after the break. Ryan Fredericks scored shortly afterwards to earn West Ham a convincing 3-0 victory on Saturday.
BBC pundit Garth Crooks has praised Arnautovic, saying he was ‘electric’ during the game.
