In fact, I don't know if players really need time to adapt. But I need time to test what role the player can play in my team. So I will not conclude whether new player is useful after he only plays a few matches.
I have noticed that some players have immediate impact (rating 8 and above) on their competition debut with their new club without playing any friendlies, while others players have a rating of 7. Some of the players who had a 7 on their debut do improve after a few matches.
