Everton captain Phil Neville says he feels great and is looking forward to playing on for at least another season.
The 33-year old said he would love to channel the spirit of former Manchester United teammate Ryan Giggs and continue playing well into his 30s but for now he is content to go year-by-year.
"I think at my age you tend to take it one season at a time but I feel as fit as I ever have. I feel great and like I can go on for at least another two or three seasons. We are eight months into a long, hard season and I feel as fit and as fresh as I have done for a while," he told the club's official website.
"I look at someone like Ryan Giggs and he is an inspiration to all of us. He looks as fit and as quick as he always has done and is still one of the best players in the Premier League. I am trying to follow his example and do all the right things and look after myself.
"I have got one year left on my contract and I always plan my season ahead and when I come back for next season my plan is to be ahead of everyone else, to be fitter than everyone else.
"I think the most important thing is that you are enjoying coming to work," he added. "If you are enjoying training and enjoying playing in the matches then you want to keep on going."
