He will be trained as a inner mid during friendlies and used as an offensive winger during league games. I am considering switching to winger training in a few seasons, and by then, this guy should be a stud.
Only 854k. Still have about 900k or so to spend.

Looks like an average price, or maybe a slightly good deal.
But, that doesn't consider how good a fit he is for your system. Since you have a solid plan for him, he's probably worth more to you than what you paid.
For example, last night, I upgraded my terrible midfield by purchasing an Excellent PM with Inad experience for $270k. While it's an average price, for my team, to get a guy like that at this point in the season, is just huge.

wow! this is an awesome buy!
a winger like that will be my next buy, in about 4 to 5 weeks... I just don't have the slot to play him in the friendly right now...
I also just bought a solid pm/solid passer 18yo with the 750k I had in the bank, so...

Hopefully he is at least inad in stamina after the offseason training. I do feel good that a few of the players I had bookmarked that were 17, excellent winger, passable pm, and no passing went for over 1 million.
There goes my FOFC Cup run!

Paid 1 million. He went for 300k to 500k less than the 4 other players I had bookmarked similar to him. They all had weak to passable stamina though. My plan is to train these to in PM for at least the next two seasons and then train winger for one to create two players to bring me to the top baby! I figure with the combo of wing attack plus midfield contribution will help tons.

Since you bought him from me, I'd say this is a good buy! :)

He's a great buy for your training program if your going to keep him around. I don't know about him being the best bang for your buck if you plan to sell him....

I like buying one of the two, but not both. Of your 6 primary playmaking spots, 5 are now being taken up by players that you intend to keep leaving only one to fund improvements elsewhere. If you plan to play the winger on the wing to get them the 50% training you wasted a lot of money getting 17yos.

You're stupid. I mean you're a defensive crawfish lover, for pete's sake. :D
As for the purchases- I love the first one but think you made up for it by overpaying on the second.

Judging by AE and the NCR's performance this season, good enough to start for him.
