EFL Q&A: Steven Taylor lifts the lid on his hatred for Sunderland, playing against Ruud van Nistelrooy and eating Nando's twice a week

It still seems odd to see Steven Taylor wearing the blue shirt of Ipswich Town rather than the black and white stripes of Newcastle United.

The 31-year-old central defender joined the Tractor Boys in January after spending six months with MLS side Portland Timbers.

Unsurprisingly, his Newcastle career and roots figure prominently in his answers to our weekly Sky Bet EFL Q&A.

At the top of his list is his dislike of bitter north-east rivals Sunderland against whom he hopes to be playing for Ipswich in next season's Championship... because that would mean the Black Cats are on their way to relegation.
