John Mousinho joined Stevenage on a two year contract after leaving Wycombe Wanderers in the summer of 2010. He started his career at Brentford, gaining some first team experience with loan spells at the likes of Woking, Slough, and Yeading. He made 64 appearances for the Bees in the 3 years he was there before signing for Peter Taylor’s Wycombe in the summer of 2008.
Mousinho became an important member of Taylor’s side that won promotion to League 1. He was also a regular in the side that eventually got relegated back to League 2 last season.
Mousinho is a defensive midfielder that can also cover at right back. He even had a spell in goal once when a certain Clark Masters had got himself sent off while playing for Brentford. Mousinho is a ball winning player, a no thrills player that can intercept a pass and get the attack moving again.
I think it’s a good signing and one that gives the team some valuable league experience. It certainly adds to the competition for places in the midfield as well. He should make a big impact on the side this season and help the club adapt to life in the football league.
