"I just enjoy playing. I think I have played everywhere but up front. The gaffer knows I'll play wherever he wants me. But I do enjoy the midfield cameos I have been given recently."
O'Shea looks up to Roy Keane:
"He has just been fantastic Roy keeps himself in such good condition. He's a great example for the players at the club, and at international level too."
"He has shown up the people who wrote him off," O'Shea says. "He has shown what he is about in big games against players who are supposed to be better than him, especially against Liverpool and Arsenal. He rose to the occasion each time," O'Shea adds, "and he's playing as well as ever. You could say that Roy's at the peak of his game again, but if you listen to Keano he would tell you that he has been playing like that all the time."
"I know I'm biased, but in my eyes Roy is still the best midfielder in the country."
