Bit part player Sylvinho satisfied with life at Man City
Manchester City defender Sylvinho is proud of his role in bringing much needed experience to the squad.
The Brazilian arrived from Barcelona in the summer as cover and has only started one game for Mark Hughes' men this campaign.
"It is an amazing and exciting thing to be at a club that has such ambition," the 35 year old told the club's official website.
"Of course I would like to play football every week but I understand how to handle these things."
The former Arsenal full-back insists has set his sights on a coaching role at Eastlands, such is his high regard for the club's ambition.
"I would definitely like to remain longer," he added.
"The project to make this club one of the best in Europe and the world cannot be completed in six months or a year and I would like to be part of it for as long as possible.
"What really pleased me was finding how big this club was already and that everyone around it is working hard to make it even bigger.
"We have a lot of good players and an intelligent and good man in manager Mark Hughes but the key is to make sure the mentality in the dressing room is right.
"Every minute of the day in every week has to be geared towards thinking about winning three points in the next game.
"We need to make people believe that we can do that. It is very important. Mentality is very important. Whatever we are aiming for, be it, top four, top three or top two, it is going to be difficult but easier if the mentality is there."
