RT's Vaseline Tub Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 A great full back that is as canny as they come. Proper reader of the great and a great build to boot - Any Team would be proud to have him as a RB. Solid as...
shelts Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 I think he's a good lad and a good capture . We look strong on both flanks
AppyDAZE Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Popular guy already... and rightly so. Settled in well, gives his all and has a good touch. Hope he's aware he has a song already
Floatn Over Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Certainly a class act is EP, watched him a lot tonight, indeed a great reader of the game was my thought also and did he put a foot wrong? Don't think he did. Excellent acquisition who can probably do even better.
pongo88 Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Good first half, but I though he looked a bit off the pace as the match progressed in the second half. He hit the bar, but that was a miss hit cross
ZiderEyed Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 I think he's been an inspired signing. I have confidence in our entire back 4, for the first time since gods knows when.
grubby Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Was chatting to the fans in my pub tonight before the game and said watch him, he looks different class, didn't let me down. A wonderful defender with that air of danger in attack. Hopefully we have a good 3 years or so out of him.

His crossing was a bit off tonight, but he is a quality defender, and good in the build-up play.

Distortia Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Let me say this - if our whole XI was at the standard of Pisano, we'd certainly be a top 6 team, IMO. Now where's the thread where someone (after 2 preseason games) suggested he 'won a competition to become a professional footballer'?
Lanterne Rouge Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Definitely looks the real deal. One of those players who can get you out of your seat when he bombs forward and defends just like you`d expect an Italian to.

Alessandro Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 I'm a fan of the guy. My only criticism would be that he does like to stick the tackle in. A few times tonight that was nearly misjudged and leaving himself exposed. Against a tricky pacy winger he will need to be more canny.
Aaron-Bcfc Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 He struggled a bit at Birmingham and Brentford but generally very happy with him so far.
reddoh Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 he was not in my vision today. that means he did what we pay him for and did it well.

exAtyeoMax Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 I've decided to call him Zorro because when he was on the floor last Saturday I thought the number on his shirt looked like a 'Z'. Think he's a good player.

Couldn't ask for anything more really - bloke would charge through a brick wall to get at the ball. Brilliant signing. reminds me of a certain centre half with his full bloodied commitment, excuse the pun but wow the man has the makings of a real fans favourite.
BobBobSuperBob Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 A real 'hit' for me up to now Composed on ball , love his romps forward , not afraid to put a tackle in but as much for his character ! When we signed him I said he looked like he could be / hoped he'd be similar to Bruno at Brighton and he actually reminds me a lot of Bruno Great start Pisa Pisa Pisannnnooooooo
Bar BS3 Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Forget my previous post, I'll return to that and apologise/make peace, on that very thread, when the time is right. I'm still not convinced though. Last night Villa played though the middle and had very little wide threat ( their team selection was baffling, with Hogan & Adomah on the bench) Pisano, certainly isn't the mug that I saw during the Yeovil game, however, he can't cross for shit, seriously dire at crossing! And I still think he looks vulnerable against any sort of wide threat. So far, 6/10 for me.

Had a nose bleed - presume he was made to change his shorts as blood had got on them.
Guest Euan BCFC Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 From what I've seen, he's as far from a Statue as possible
BCFC Grim Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Really like him. As a back 5 we look quite solid. It's the midfield that's the problem.
Kibs Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 I've been really impressed with Pisano. My expectations were lowered significantly when someone came on here after the Yeovil friendly saying he looked non-league or something. Anyway, he looks a class act and our back 5 is looking really solid.
italian dave Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 "OTIB in (almost) complete agreement about something positive" shock.
wendyredredrobin Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 He is a typical italian league RB, exactly what we needed. Our entire defence looks better for the addition of him and Baker. Even Joe Bryan's defencive play has improved this season.

Red Army 75 Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Like him . Best right back we've had for a while

Very happy with the defensive set up this season - and with Hörður, Flinty(at the moment) Vyner and Kelly in reserve, we are better off in the back line then we've been for yonks.
cummins17 Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 From what I've seen so far really like the look of Pisano, very solid and tough to beat (what you expect from an Italian defender) Hope he can keep it up! Love little to bits, but Pisano is certainly an upgrade in class

Tipps69 Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 It was mentioned during commentary that after the Brentford game he was sat in the changing room just shaking his head & saying that he couldn't believe how fast the game is here & basically doubting his ability to adjust to The Championship! Can't wait to see him adjust to the standard, imagine the type of player we'll have on our hands then.
Erithacus Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Something of an old school style fullback - one who thinks about defending first and foremost. He seems to have an air of composure about him and the rest of the back line looks a little less jittery than last season now in response. Good signing thus far! Oh, and when we were defending a corner in the first half, he managed to get both hands on John Terry. Terry went near post, the cross went far and Pisano had his man on the floor in a heap among the crowd scene. Ciao, JT...
cityred exile Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 just watching florist v leeds Ayling on a par with our pizza man !
Rich_s Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Yeah. Looks really decent. Typically Italian defender. Just looks completely cool.
