Newcastle United: The Next Great Football Dynasty

Newcastle United have recently undergone a change in ownership.
The takeover has made them potentially the richest football club in the entire world and has left many feeling that we could see a Manchester City/Chelsea situation in the coming years.
But with their current form in abysmal condition and the controversy surrounding the takeover itself, you'd be excused if you were not convinced that anything significant would happen anytime soon.
In any case, today we're going to take a look into the history of Newcastle United football club to track how they got to where they are today and speculate on what's up next.
Let's get right into it

Newcastle fan here that's great content I have not seen a better look through our history on KZbin. Most Newcastle fans valued the Inter Cities Fairs Cup 1969 as a major trophy at the time, alot of people debate whether it is but I don't think Arsenal, Leeds or Barcelona would give up theirs as it was the precursor of the UEFA Cup/Europa League. Although not a UEFA recognised competition it is recognised by FIFA as a major honour. It was the 2nd most major European honour after the European Cup in its time and was replaced by the UEFA Cup in that role .

[@FootballIconic]

Very true. Only didn't include it as it's not recognized by UEFA, but I probably should have

[@albertthomasmanayani5351]

I think Newcastle will definitely became a footballing dynasty for sure. But it's going to be a gradual process. Unlike Chelsea and Manchester City who were somewhat of a top half finisher in the league before their takeover, Newcastle team needs a total reconstruction in all departments. Second, convincing big players to your project is going to be a huge task even if you have all the money in the world. But why I am optimistic of them to be successful is because they can look into examples of Chelsea and Manchester City on how they approached high profile players and how they structured a plan to work on. Having a high profile coach would have made the process more easier, but that doesn't make Eddie Howe a bad coach but he is a coach who has worked only in England and convincing players from outside the league would be a task of some sorts. This is what I feel about the current situation of Magpies.

Awesome video mate! I have been a life long Newcastle fan, since my dad told me to be when I was growing up. After years of MIke Ashley's tyranny, our prayers were answered. And I don't want to sound too cheesy but my Dad always told me that the club was a sleeping giant ready to be awakened if managed correctly and with investment. It's a one club city, it's right in the centre of the city and the support has always been electric. I am also really glad the way they have handled recruitment so far, making the current players better and work within the system. Another aspect that people are sleeping on is that as supporters we are patient, as long as we see the team giving it's best, and the players putting a shift in we are happy. The whole region will erupt if we won something.

Few points in getting him in: 1. His (Messi) contract is about to expire in PSG. 2. NUFC needs a rebranding. Getting Messi would be a crazy, insane move and may even be the talk of the century, like how it did for PSG. Then let Messi do like how PSG did to Mbappe, let him call out who should be signing into this team. I believe with his talent and captaincy, he would be able to know how to improve the existing team and bring in more firepower. I mean this guy is a strategies in the field with his own rights.

The same applies to man city as well, the club is also backed by a whole country/government, just like Newcastle basically.

[@patrickmccutcheon9361]

Interesting parallel with Chelsea and City which each had previously had little success, albeit Chelsea were improving. It will take time and require a lot of big players who will have to be prepared to go a few seasons of not winning or playing in Europe. They cannot just splash the cash as there is a limit to how much you can spend although they could copy City’s financial engineering that purchased their titles. To catch up with the big three of City, L’pool and Chelsea and contend for a spot in the Champions League, they will need a huge investment in players and a top manager. They first have to get out of the relegation zone and then past the likes of ManU, West Ham, Wolves, Arsenal, Leicester and the other wannabe top team Tottenham and before that Aston Villa and Everton. Will be interesting to see if it happens and if it does how long it takes. They might end up like Spurs, being considered a big club because they have a big stadium.

They will be successful eventually but it will take them a much longer time to get there than it did for Chelsea and Man City simply because Newcastle are in significantly worse shape than those clubs were at the time of their takeovers. Newcastle may even get relegated this season as I don't see any top players joining them in the next transfer window regardless of the money due to their current form. No top player wants to play in the championship. Maybe they can get a few like Marcelo on short term loans until the end of the season but ultimately they will have to build this team from scratch in the second division and maybe that's not a bad thing. It's certainly a long term project.

Newcastle need to focus on getting a football philosophy and system in place. Basically, do what Red Bull did - I say this, because Newcastle is honestly NOT a competitive team at all as it stands, with no apparent system or style at all. They are in the 'How do we go from zero to the top?' basket, and building a system is FAR more reliable an investment than trying to build a team to do that. There is no quick fix - Gone are the days an endless bank account could be used to accelerate things.

Coming back to this after Newcastle's draw against Arsenal at the Emirates and Wow. Eddie Howe's done a remarkable job already. I can only imagine how scary they're going to be with all the big-money marquee signings heading their way. Soon it could feel like we're living in some fat bastard's Fifa Career Mode simulation with unlimited Financial Takeovers, Future Stars cards & he's going to be such a sore loser that he will surely restart match or turn off his console in rage, Every-Single-Time, things aren't going his way. So savor your victories folks

He'll have a starting 11 of Ballon D'or winners while the rest of us are signing left backs every transfer window for some odd reason. And we will all get relegated in circulation.

There's was a guy called Dalglish in there, he's quite famous in football.

Sounds like a royal name

The inconsistency start Is a bit misleading the clubs only suffered 5 relegations in the full history 2 under Mike Ashley which has been the last 14 years

I enjoyed this as a NUFC fan. Looks like we may well get relegated but we will bounce back at he first attempt as always and then we can push forward. Relegation will only be a years delay. Newcastle will be a super power with the crazy amount of wealth the PIF have. 500 million is like pocket change to them and that would be enough to push us into european places. Future is bright.

Newcastle will have to pay over the odds for average mercenaries at first. So it's going to be a game of people jumping on board for the gold i'm afraid. I don't think the Toon will have as easy a journey as the other oil clubs did, because everyone is focused on Newcastle now, so the pressure and expectation is there, plus their rise to the top will be made as difficult as possible by other clubs, as if to say, "oh no you don't! We've seen this before".
