How I can use Input::old() in edit page, when value is

{{ $user->name }}

But, if name is invalid¹, or something, how I can get the Input::old() and override {{ $user->name }} ?

For example:

<input type="text" id="name" name="name" placeholder="Nome" class='span12' value="{{ $user->name }}" />

      Input::old('name', $user->name), 
      array('class' => 'span12','placeholder' => 'Name')
)}}
