I have no clue why mascherano hasnt adapted, on paper he would be perfect for the english game... maybe its down to each player, but I see the argentinian league as a good prospect... Players like Paletta (not saying he has adapted), Samuel, Ayala, Heinze etc... should have no problem coming here, I think... Players like Veron who need a lot of time on the ball should have more problems... Tevez is a fantastic player and I fully expect him to come good, 6 months is not enough to judge a player, specially at a club where players dont particularly like the bunch... They are at the bottom of the table, I think its harder to adapt with those circumstances...
