Blue Forever 179 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 http://rangers.co.uk...looks-at-mohsniRANGERS manager Ally McCoist will take a look at French-Tunisian defender Bilel Mohsni during the club’s northern tour over the next few days.The 25-year-old played most recently with English outfit Southend United, making 80 appearances for them since going there from Sainte-Genevieve Sports in 2010.Mohsni trained at Murray Park this morning and McCoist will assess the free agent while his squad is based in the Highlands for friendlies with Brora and Elgin City.No talks about any potential deal have taken place and the arrangement is simply a trial as things stand.Gers manager McCoist confirmed his interest in both Christophe Berra and Boris Pandza earlier this week.In casting his eye over Mohsni as well, he is keeping his options open as he looks to tighten up a back line which conceded some sloppy goals last season.Paris-born Mohsni, who spent part of last term on loan at Ipswich Town, was the subject of a bid from Premiership side West Ham last year.His final appearance for Southend came in April as his team lost the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy final 2-0 to Crewe at Wembley.Mods/Admin, feel free to move this to the transfer section, posted it in here by mistake.

Blue Forever 179 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 Worth noting that although he is a defender, he has played as a winger and a striker for Southend (and done well in all three positions). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Forever 179 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 His versatility will cause no end of arguments on here, if he earns a contract.I think the difference here, when compared to other 'versatile' players we have had, is that he has performed well in other positions whereas some of our players who McCoist considers 'versatile' have not.

Blue Forever 179 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 See. Arguing already.No one is arguing, I simply made the point that Ally (in my opinion) sees something in certain players (*cough* Little *cough*) when played in positions other than the one they have shown that they are best suited to.

CaptainAmerica18 846 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Wasn't he meant to go to Forest but their owners called the deal off? Was at the same time they were due to sign George Boyd but cancelled that as well.No harm in giving him a trial first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elephants stoned 2,994 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 On loan at Ipswich and West Ham tryed to sign him, sounds worth a look for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Forever 179 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 What's Mohsni's best suited position then? Central defence of course - he only started playing in other positions when Southend went through an injury crisis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 He has a pretty ropey history with Southend and seems to have an attitude problem. West Ham only offered £150,000 for him and he seems to have been hawking himself round the place. No harm looking but it doesn't sound like the type of player we need now.
