Mohsni back in Shrimpers squad

Southend manager Paul Sturrock will have Bilel Mohsni in his squad for the home clash with Stevenage. The French defender has missed the last two games as he served a one-game suspension for his dismissal at Accrington on April 2 and then a second as he recovered from a broken nose. However, the 23-year-old is expected to be among the substitutes, with the Shrimpers defence having only conceded one goal in his absence. Midfielder Lee Sawyer, fresh from signing a one-year contract extension, could also return to contention following an ankle ligament injury which has kept him out of action since March 18. The 21-year-old was originally expected to miss the rest of the season but has made a rapid recovery. Sturrock has no other injury or suspension problems to contend with for the clash.
