Jimbo 133 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 TOON IN CHEEKY LOAN OFFER TO FERGIE Magpies ask for Macheda in exchange for Taylor By Martin Hardy, 12/12/2009 NEWCASTLE have asked Manchester United about a shock loan swap that would see defender Steven Taylor exchanged for hitman Federico Macheda. Toon bosses are worried about their striking options for the remainder of the season, as the club attempt to make an immediate return to the Premier League. Central defender Matthew Kilgallon is expected to move to Newcastle next month from Sheffield United. That would allow the Toon to loan 23-year-old Taylor to United - who are in need of temporary defensive cover - with Macheda heading in the opposite direction. Forward Marlon Harewood will return to Nottingham Forest this month after failing to impress during his loan spell at St James' Park - and Shola Ameobi is considering going to the African Cup of Nations with Nigeria. That leaves Newcastle with one experienced striker in Peter Lovenkrands plus rookies Andy Carroll and Nile Ranger. Italian Macheda, 18, is viewed as a scorer of real promise and is rated highly by Newcastle's staff, who believe he could hit a hatful in the Championship.

Kitman 2188 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I suppose it's possible we've enquired about taking this player on loan. The idea that Taylor would go in the opposite direction is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 721 Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 He would score a hatful in this league. That's the only part of that "article" that resembles the truth. They didn't even get Harewood's club straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Is it Steven or Ryan? Because one's only slightly more ridiculous an idea than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
