Lrrr Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 Merge if posted elsewhere but hadn't seen anything, so if O'Neil appeared on the bench Sunday, can we assume Pisano might be a couple of weeks from a bench appearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 And wow, what an hour he gave us today. Up against Lucas Jaio I thought he was excellent all game. Great to see him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A terrific hand on his substitution, in fact the crowd cheered almost every touch he had, even his yellow card! He acknowledged the crowd as well.

italian dave Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 He got a big hand at the start and when he went off. Great to see him back. We look so much better going forward too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcofisher Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Clearly knackered, but his positioning was absolutely perfect and gave us so much more width to do damage that Wright can't give us playing out of position. Hopefully this 60 minute cameo will do wonders for his fitness and he can play another 60 on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 He was puffing like a steam train after about 20 minutes, but delighted to see him back. Really helpful that this was a no pressure game because Wednesday were absolute dogs-eggs. Couldn't have worked out better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperDziek Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 What a cynical tackle on their player. Knew he wouldn’t be able to catch him so just took his legs out. Great stuff Eros! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveF Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Very noticeable how much he gets forward compared to Wright. Didn’t have a great deal of defending to do but it was definitely an encouraging return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 There was an amazing difference with him in the team instead of Wright at full back. It’s not that Wright is a bad player, it’s just that he’s a central defender who has been playing at full back. Pisano did everything a full back should do, even though he was a bit cream crackered after 60 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang on Pongo.......seemed to make the whole back four more confident knowing they had a proper right back who they didn't need to cover for.

Wrongagain Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Refreshing change attack minded and fast, think he only fluffed one important pass and added a lot going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 It was great to see Eros again, really good bloke and a good player too. We have really missed him. TBH, he looked nowhere near fit though and a bit of a risk to start him, but he does seem to add a little something. Great reception from the fans too.

GrahamC Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Wonder what people’s views would have been if we had played against a side who weren’t totally abysmal. As @Bristol Rob says he was absolutely shattered after 20 minutes and the yellow card would have been really costly against a competent side. He is right, that he couldn’t have picked better opponents but looks miles off being able to play against a better side on that evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Said from the first couple of games he played that he looked like an absolute class act. Brilliant to have him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 The opposition have terrible injuries (rather worse than ours) and were in equally poor form pre game as we were, so it's a very good game to return in. That return was highly encouraging though IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcofisher Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 1 hour ago, JonDolman said: Good game. He gave it away poorly a couple of times. And did look absolutely knackered, even after his first time up the pitch! But better than I thought he would be having not played for so long. Hope he can get back fit and manage to last the 90 every game. I'm not sure what happens with Wright now when everyone is fit. Seems that Bakers a bit injury prone without having extended spells out, as we are in the last part of the season can't see Wright not getting on the pitch a fair bit between now and the end of the season.

Bs4Red Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Such a better team with him in the side. Brilliant today for 60 mins and one of the only players at our club who has a cynical streak in him.

RedM Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 I honestly forgot what it was like to have a proper right back compared to someone filling in. Credit to Bailey Wright for doing a job, but the step up in class from Pisano was so evident. I saw him afterwards and he was beaming when everyone was welcoming him back and saying what a great game he had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Bit more of a mixed opinion from me to be honest. As many have pointed out, he offered so much more going forward than Wright ever can. But I thought he was caught upfield unnecessarily a couple of times and Weds had a couple of breaks down our right that maybe could’ve been more dangerous if they were not utter turd. Also, a couple of occasions he was too far infield when we were trying to play out from the back which resulted in us having to go back to Frank or CB’s, whereas an easy pass would have been on had he stayed wide. Thats my only criticisms though, but that thought I’d add it for perspective. For his first game back though, I’ll let him off those errors. I also thought he looked leaner than he did back in Sept.
