'I know Patrick wants to go to the World Cup and for this reason alone I feel he can be very important for us over the next three or four months. He is a big player, both on the pitch and in the mind.'We lost two games recently, against Everton and Manchester United. They were both very different games and at Everton I felt we were tired.
'But Patrick is so experienced maybe we would not have lost those games if he had been in the team.'
I think this Saturday he will come in for Gareth Barry, who clearly needs some time out of the side. But his long-term role? I don't know.
