Oleg_Mcnoleg 50 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 The problem with Mohsni is that his mistakes are a) so frequent and b) so utterly avoidable. I've never seen a player who makes the difficult look easy and the easy look impossible. incredibly frustrating: he spends most of the game looking a really accomplished player before playing like a man recovering from a serious stroke. Just can't seem to concentrate for the full 90mins. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 6,215 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Best we replace him and get a proper centre half . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,182 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Saturday's mistake was a real pity as Mohsni was one of our better players before he gave the ball away. After his excellent display against Hibs I'd really hoped he'd moved his game forward. However, I think McCulloch and Bell were culpable as well. The former should have allowed the striker to run offside, while the latter gave the ball to Mohsni when the defender had nothing on and was already being closed down. That doesn't excuse Mohsni giving the ball away but it does mitigate it somewhat. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I'd have him start in defence every week. Head and shoulders above our other centre half's. McGregor is our best CB. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 McGregor is our best CB. I would agree to the extent that McGregor and Zaliukas are our best possible combination. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He missed the flight of the ball on the penalty spot in the first half and the boy headed wide of a gaping goal. And in the second half he lost the ball at the back, and let the guy in on goal. Luckily he chose the wrong option and we got away with it. So even on his 'better' games we need luck on our side that his howlers don't cost us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree which is why we can't rely on him in a general sense. We have a few players like that - clearly talented individuals who can't give a consistently high level of performance. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEARGER 1,829 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 First saw him in the Bristol City pre season friendly. My thoughts at first were we have a player here, he will do. But he then gave the ball away under no pressure from which they should have scored. He seems to me to be unable to concentrate for 90 minutes against anyone, therefore he will not do in PL. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Deedle 0 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 As said above, his mistakes are so frequent that I doubt even Davie Weir being next to him could help him concentrate for a full game. Better cutting our losses here before he gives us a right sore one to contemplate. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I won't hold that mistake against him. He got caught out trying to play football after Jig and more so bell hung him out to dry. It cost us nothing and we should continue to play it on the deck but with more movement and forethought. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
