Former teammate Kyle Hutton has revealed that Rangers misfit Bilel Mohsni would snub boss Ally McCoist and his defensive duties to go up front.
Mohsni spent two years at Ibrox as the club looked to progress through the lower leagues on their journey to the Premiership and, eventually, this year's title.
The enigmatic defender would often be thrown up front by then boss McCoist - but Hutton admits that wasn't always the decision of the gaffer.
He told the Football Daft podcast that Mohsni would often abandon his defensive duties to take on a role up front - despite being told to stay back.
Midfielder Hutton said: “The first day he comes in on trial he says ‘I play centre-back, right mid, or sometimes striker’ - no word of a lie.
“All the boys are looking at each other going, 'what?'
"I knew a boy down south who played with him, and he said, 'no he’s being serious, he does play centre-back, on the wing, or sometimes he’ll go up front.'
“He’ll not go up front because the manager has told him, he said when he was down south he would just go up front.
“He’d say f*** this centre-half stuff, I’m going up front. I don’t know if you realised but he did it at a few times when he was at Rangers.
“He would just go. Coisty would be on the line going off the nut and Mohsni would just be dingying him. He had just decided; it was crazy man.”
Mohsni's career in Govan was ended in controversial circumstances after a bust-up with Motherwell's Lee Erwin in 2015 having failed to win the Championship play-off.
He returned to the Scottish game with a brief stint at Dundee United, but is currently without a club having left English non-league side Barnet after just three appearances.
