Big Al Helps Me Out - Taylor
Steven Taylor quotes:
"I play against Alan Shearer in training.
"He talks me through the game, helps me out and gets a few kicks
and elbows in as well, which is good and what I need if I want
to toughen myself up.
"It's a great experience to be playing in The Premiership, testing
yourself against the best for 90 minutes each week, and it's
been a big thing for me confidence-wise and also in terms of
fitness.
"It's been a good step up for me from reserve football and suddenly
you are up against bigger, stronger players.
"Graeme Souness has given me the chance to play and says a lot
about his faith in me because I was only 18 at the time."
