I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 1 You really don’t treat time travelers as human beings!

"I am definitely the most unsuccessful time traveler in history!"

Yang Cheng was lying on the bed in the emergency room of the hospital, completely exhausted.

Even breathing became extremely difficult.

But his consciousness was extremely clear.

The moment before he fell, he was still directing the most important championship battle in the 2023/24 Premier League season.

In the 88th minute, the Arsenal team he coached finally broke the goal of Manchester City team led by the world-famous coach Guardiola.

The first championship in his coaching career is about to be won!
An unprecedented ecstasy suddenly surged up in him, and he completely lost control.

Especially when he saw Guardiola's depressed expression next to him, he felt unprecedented satisfaction.

The next moment, he fell down.

He clearly "saw" himself being carried on a stretcher to the ambulance on the field, and "heard" the emergency doctor's call in his ear...

The ambulance rushed to the nearest hospital.

What followed was a hectic rescue operation.

The doctor and the nurse kept talking to him. He heard every word clearly, but he was unable to answer.

It's all 2024.

Medical science is so advanced, I should be able to save him, right?
When this thought flashed through Yang Cheng's mind, the rapid beeping sound from the instrument made him feel scared again.

It turns out that the feeling of being on the verge of death is so terrifying!
The memories of his two lives were like a movie, replaying before his eyes.

From 1984 to 2011, that was the beginning of an ordinary life.

Going back to 1995 and starting over, up to now in 2024, it is a magnificent history of adventure in European football.

His coaching career has spanned many teams, from giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Chelsea and Manchester United to the German Bundesliga and the Dutch Eredivisie, all of which have left his coaching footprints.

30 years!
It took him 30 years to struggle and hone his skills from a rookie to become a recognized famous coach in the world of football.

His biggest regret is that in these 30 years, he has not won a single significant championship.

The second child of ten thousand years.

This is the consolation prize given to him by the media and fans.

But who can't hear the sarcasm behind this nickname?

After struggling for 30 years, I finally got the championship I dreamed of, but I didn't expect...

Not reconciled!

Even in his consciousness, Yang Cheng was trembling all over.

Real Madrid's three consecutive Champions League titles were the framework he created.

It was he who led Barcelona out of its historical trough, which led to Rijkaard's Dream 2 and Guardiola's Dream 3.

Chelsea's first Champions League should have been his.

Manchester United has been able to get out of the quagmire after Ferguson's retirement and maintain its competitiveness as one of the top European clubs thanks to his drastic reforms.

Even after Guardiola led Manchester City to win the championship, he specifically thanked him for the valuable legacy he left behind.

A whole 30 years!

The championship appeared within his reach countless times.

But every time I missed the opportunity due to various reasons.

Finally, in 2024, everyone acknowledged that Yang Cheng was a world-famous coach, but he still failed to win the championship.

I really can't accept it!

If I were given another chance, I would...

……

knock knock knock.

There was a rapid knock on the door.

Yang Cheng screamed and suddenly woke up.

He sat up from the bed, breathing with all his might as if he was rescued from drowning.

His back was already soaked.

After taking a deep breath, his consciousness gradually became clearer.

He was surprised to find that he was not lying on a bed in the hospital emergency room, but in a cramped office.

what happened?

Yang Cheng sat on the bed and looked around.

He was very unfamiliar with this office and desperately searched his memory for some clues.

At this moment, a strange memory came to my mind.

He traveled through time again!
From 2024 back to the summer of 2003.

His name is Yang Cheng and he is 23 years old.

At this moment, he is in the office of Bayswater Chinese Football Club, north of Hyde Park in London, England.

Bayswater Chinese?
When this unfamiliar name appeared in Yang Cheng's mind, he felt a sudden pain in his head.

This is a big trouble.

His father, Yang Jianguo, made his fortune in the 80s, starting out in the footwear and clothing business, and was determined to create China's own sports brand.

In 96, there was a huge wave of Chinese football players going abroad.

Yang Jianguo did not catch up with this trend, but took a different approach and acquired a low-level amateur team in London in 97.

According to his idea, he wanted to spend a few years bringing this amateur team to the Premier League and make it a stepping stone for Chinese players to study abroad.

To this end, he spent a huge amount of money to purchase a large piece of land in Bayswater, north of Hyde Park, planning to build a stadium and training ground that can accommodate 10,000 people.

This feat once attracted the attention of domestic media and fans.

Who knows, the good times will not last long.

The Chinese team was unstoppable in the past few years, but after a series of promotions, it has been difficult to improve in the English League Two.

The continuous large investments also caused problems with the Yang family’s capital chain, and they had to suspend the construction of the stadium and training ground.

The debts came like an avalanche, completely crushing the club.

It also endangers the Yang family’s domestic businesses.

A little carelessness can lead to disaster.

Yang Jianguo returned to China urgently to stabilize the base camp.

Yang Cheng, the only son who had just graduated from university, was left in the UK to temporarily take over his father's job to deal with this difficult situation.

After sorting out his memories, Yang Cheng revealed a bitter smile. They really don't treat the time travelers as human beings!

The pay is getting lower and lower.

The last time I wore it was in Germany in 95, and at least I still had a job and a coaching certificate.

But now?

He immediately became a millionaire, no, a billionaire.

It’s British Pound!

Zhu Baba started with a bowl, and I have tens of millions of pounds in debt.

We all have a bright future...

In his previous life, Yang Cheng coached Chelsea and Arsenal successively and was very familiar with London.

The north of Hyde Park is a well-known wealthy area. Notting Hill, Bayswater and Paddington are all world-famous.

Where can we get such a large piece of land to build a stadium and training ground?

I can only say that the time-travel god is awesome.

But this location is absolutely amazing!
……

knock knock knock.

There was another knock on the door.

"Ah Cheng, are you awake?"

Yang Cheng looked towards the door and calmed himself down, "You're awake, Uncle Lin."

The middle-aged man shouting outside the door was called Lin Zhongqiu, an old financial officer who followed Yang Jianguo to make his fortune.

When the cheap dad returned to stabilize the base, he left Lin Zhongqiu behind to "help" Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng walked over and opened the door.

Lin Zhongqiu looked at the prince who had just graduated from the university campus. His handsome and fair face showed a kind of naivety and inexperienced look, and he felt a little reluctant.

Ah Cheng looks like his mother and has a gentle personality, lacking the sharpness of a businessman.

Even when disaster is imminent, you can still sleep peacefully.

"Chelsea's Russian negotiator will be here soon. You should get ready. I will discuss the details. Just follow what I told you before and hold on to the 1000 million pounds. Do you understand?"

Lin Zhongqiu instructed.

Yang Cheng stayed in London as a mascot, and all the specific matters were handled by Lin Zhongqiu.

But Lin Zhongqiu's mention of Chelsea caught Yang Cheng's attention.

“Abramovich?”

"Yes, among the people who came this time was his representative from the bank, Cash Harris, the chairman of Seymour Pierce Investment Bank."

“And the famous agent Pini Zahavi.”

“These two are said to be key figures in his bid for Chelsea this year.”

Yang Cheng frowned.

In his previous life, he coached Chelsea for two seasons. He laid the foundation in the first season and saw an explosion in the second season.

They finished second in the Premier League, just behind Ferguson's Manchester United, and were unstoppable in the Champions League.

But just when the team finished the semi-finals and eliminated Guardiola's Barcelona with great difficulty, and Yang Cheng was aiming for the Champions League title, he was fired on the flight from Barcelona back to London.

The reason is that he refused to sell the aging Drogba!

After being fired, Yang Cheng's assistant coach led the team to the Champions League final and won the Champions League.

Now, just after I came across, Chelsea came knocking on the door again. What a narrow road for enemies!

"Uncle Lin, why do you want to sell this land?" Yang Cheng asked humbly.

Lin Zhongqiu was a little confused.

"I mean, the location of this piece of land is so good. I looked carefully and found that there are 6 subway lines and 5 subway stations within one kilometer, including Paddington, a hub railway station that is very important in London and even the whole of the UK."

"We can definitely use this piece of land to raise funds, attract developers, and engage in real estate. Wouldn't that be more profitable?"

Lin Zhongqiu looked at Yang Cheng in surprise, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Then comes the appreciation.

But soon, he shook his head with a wry smile.

"Ah Cheng, you think things are too simple."

Yang Cheng didn't understand.

"We do own this land, but its use has been fixed. According to the city planning of the London City Council, this land can only be used as a stadium or training ground."

"We have considered the plan you mentioned, but it is simply not feasible. Let's not talk about whether there are investors interested. Even if there are, just changing the plan will be a long-lasting and troublesome matter. It is simply not realistic to do it within a few years."

“Even if the government is willing to change the plan, we will still have to pay an astronomical amount of money.”

When Lin Zhongqiu said this, he sighed helplessly.

"Our funding chain has been cut off. Many players have been making trouble with the club after hearing the news. We have also sold a lot of players, but it is still a drop in the bucket. Now we can only sell this land as soon as possible to prevent the crisis from spreading further."

This is a stop loss of last resort.

After selling this land, what will happen to the Chinese in Bayswater?

The answer is self-evident.

Even the home stadium and training ground have been sold. Is there any possibility for this club to exist?

Yang Cheng really didn't expect that he would face such a bad situation just after crossing over.

Is it true that there is really no other way?
"We have tried every possible method we can think of, Cheng."

Lin Zhongqiu saw the reluctance in Yang Cheng's eyes and consoled him, "Although several years of hard work have been wasted, at least it's not a complete loss. After Abramovich acquired Chelsea, he wanted to build a new stadium and training base."

"They are the only one who is interested in the land and can afford the money."

After saying that, Lin Zhongqiu reached out and patted Yang Cheng on the shoulder.

"Don't think too much. Go wash your face. I'll get ready."

Watching Lin Zhongqiu leave, Yang Cheng felt a nameless anger in his heart.

He is not willing!

In his previous life, he was just a head coach and was played around by these wealthy teams.

Could it be that in this life after traveling through time, I will have to repeat the same mistakes again?
Yang Cheng didn't believe it!

There must be another way!
