And yet my two top scorers are my wingers that I've had for three seasons.

I just don't understand why it's happened.
That is what I am saying, that happened maybe because of poor simulation. Your team might still be good for this season and even the next season, but due to poor simulation, the game had detected that you should make significant recruitment and hence has been penalising you or giving you indications that you need to make recruitment. By buying some players, you satisfied what the game wanted. You bought players from the recommendations list, but the same effect could have happened if you bought scout list players or negotiation list players or even players from the auction list.

There can be 'conspiracies' too. For example, the game deliberately makes your team under-perform or certain specific players under-perform in attempt to tempt you to buy players from the coming recommendations' list. There have been a lot of observations that support this suspicion.
