So the bottom line is incoming players will take a season minimum to settle.
I does indeed feel like that.

You cannot generalise...

Pulisic doesn't seem to be doing too badly across the city while Aubameyang did not fare too poorly in his first season...

Also Kante was dynamite in his first season in the EPL coming from a weaker league...

It does however appear that in our club it does take foreign players a year to settle... for which we should ask: WHY?

Quite so re Pulisic and the wonderful Kante
And the “WHY?”

Higher expectations
 
Yeah, I was surprised to see a few being so negative about him in the match thread. Didn’t think he was brilliant, but I thought he showed flashes of ability - enough for me to feel mildly optimistic given how little he’s played and how poor the team as a whole was tonight.

Were they? I try and steer clear of the match threads during a game, so reactionary and people paint themselves in to a corner making comments they feel they need to prove / back up throughout the rest of the game! I’d say the match thread is the last place to go to if you want a true reflection of the game.
