I so want to see him play with Knight. He is a strong Argie who likes to grab the ball from the air from behind.

Last season it was Molango, with everyone constantly querying where he was when we were crying out for strikers. We never got any straight answers from the club, just the occasional bleating that "he's not ready". 12 months later he's gone and aside from an opening day goalscoring debut, hasn't featured.
Well fair enough you think, perhaps we'll just put it down to experience. He obviously didn't make the grade, at least he's not cost us much.
And now we've got an almost identical situation unfolding, except this time the player in question hasn't started a single game, has no relevant background (at least Molango was once on the books of Atletico) AND cost us a hefty £150,000 - significantly more than we've spent on any one player for many many years.
If he's injured, fine. If he needs time to settle, fine. But I can't work out what the current situation is with him. Surely by now he should have at least come off the bench a few times. How is he going to "adjust to the English game" if he's not getting any action?
It just seems to me we've gone and gambled a lot of money on an untested player who we'll no doubt just have to write off as a loss.
AND YET. Mark McCammon got half a season worth of games. He came in far from match fitness but was thrown straight in at the deep end and turned in some piss-poor performances.
Why are players like McCammon given more than their fair share of chances when the likes of Molango and now Turienzo simply disappear without trace?
Will Turienzo start a game for the first team at all this season?
