What to buy? Winger or Inner Mid?

[saintjo]

Im debating on what to buy in the next few weeks. And I wanted to get some peoples opinions. I will have roughly 2-2.5 million to spend. I can either...

1. Buy a winger. Probably a pure offensive one. All winger skill with little to no secondaries. My current winger that I use offensive is a solid winger, with solid playmaking and excellent stanima. He is also quick and my team leader in most cases. The problem is he is 30 and will probably start descreasing in skill soon. He is my future coach though, so I cant sell him. With winger prices low, I could probably rake in a pretty well skilled guy.

2. Buy an Inner Midfielder. This I could spend more money on though since I could sell whoever he will replace. I am currently in usa div iv. I have 1 brilliant and 2 outstanding middies. If I sell an outstanding I could add another million or so to my total purchasing power, bring it up to 3-3.5 million to spend.

3. I could do something else with the money that you guys suggest. The rest of my team is outstanding in skill levels, so Im focusing on wing and mid.

I think you can never go wrong with "buy a new middie" particularly if you look towards youngsters. I think winger prices have stabilized a little so you won't see Supernaturals out there for $3M any more like earlier in the season. Plus, until you find a new team leader, I'd ride the veteran. You'll eventually need a better offense than that out-form-out you put up a couple of weeks ago, but if you bump up that outstanding midfield, i think you'll help your team out more. And, remember, experience is good, but guys you can keep for 5+ seasons and resell (i.e. 20-23yo's) are much better :)
