I remember the time to Chelsea but I couldn't recall the other time (unless he nearly went there twice). My guess is though that he'll play on longer, probably as a holding midfielder or centre half. I think he'd make a World Class centre half FWIW.

What they weren't bowled over by Rafa's arm round the shoulder jokey nature

I quite liked it in the old days where players would play on till they could barely run any more, and sometimes long after they couldn't. They'd drop down the divisions, move into the centre of defence and still be the best player on the park. Normally, afterwards they'd hanf their boots up and go buy a pub somewhere. I suppose it's inevitable though that as they get paid more money now, people like Stevie G look forward to "retirement" at 33. Should play on as long as you can, best years of your life.
