"I am definitely the most failed time traveler in history!"
Yuvi was lying on the bed in the emergency room of the hospital, without any strength in his body.
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, Arsenal, which he coached, finally broke the goal of Manchester City, led by the world-famous coach Guardiola.
The first championship in his coaching career is about to be won!
An unprecedented ecstasy surged up in an instant, and he was completely out of control.
Especially when he saw the depressed expression of Guardiola next door, 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 arrived at the nearest hospital at lightning speed.
Then there was a flurry of rescue.
The doctor and the nurse kept talking to him, and he heard every word clearly, but he was powerless to answer.
It's 2024.
Medicine is so advanced, I should be able to be rescued, right?
When this thought flashed through Yuvi's mind, the rapid beeping sound on 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 two lives, like a movie, kept replaying in front of his eyes. From
1984 to 2011, that was the beginning of an ordinary life.
Going back to 1995 to start over, to now in 2024, it is a magnificent history of European football.
His coaching career has been to many teams, from the giants Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea and Manchester United to the German and Dutch second divisions, all of which have left his coaching footprints.
30 years!
It took him 30 years to go from a rookie, struggling and grinding, to becoming a recognized famous coach in the world of football.
His biggest regret is that in these 30 years, he didn't even win a championship of weight.
Forever second.
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, he finally got the championship he dreamed of, but he didn't expect...
I was unwilling to accept it!
Even in his mind, Yuvi 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 the 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 got out of the quagmire after Ferguson's retirement and maintained its competitiveness among the top European giants, thanks to his drastic reforms.
Even after Guardiola led Manchester City to win the championship, he had to thank him for the precious legacy he left behind.
A full 30 years!
The championship appeared in front of him countless times.
But every time for various reasons, he missed it.
Finally, in 2024, everyone admitted that Yuvi was in a list of world-famous coach, but he still failed to win the championship.
I really can't accept it!
If I am given another chance, I must...
Beep...
...
Knock knock knock.
A series of rapid knocks on the door came.
Yuvi cried out and woke up suddenly.
He sat up from the bed, breathing as hard as he could, as if he was drowning and rescued.
His back was already soaked.
After taking a breath, his consciousness gradually became clear.
He was surprised to find that he was not lying on a bed in the emergency room of the hospital, but in a cramped office.
What happened?
Yuvi sat on the bed and looked around.
He was very unfamiliar with this office and desperately searched his memory to find some clues.
At this time, a strange memory came up.
He traveled again!
From 2024 back to the summer of 2003.
His name is still Yuvi, and he is 23 years old.
At this moment, he is in the office of Bayswater Football Club in the north of Hyde Park, London, England.
Bayswater ?
When this strange name appeared in Yuvi's mind, he felt a headache.
This is a big trouble.
His father, Rajesh, started his career in the 1980s with shoes and clothing, and was determined to create a Indian sports brand.
In 1996, a vigorous wave of overseas study was set off in domestic football.
Rajesh did not catch up with this wave, but took a different approach and acquired a low-level amateur team in London in 1997.
According to his idea, he wanted to spend a few years to bring this amateur team to the Premier League and become a stepping stone for some indian players to study abroad.
To this end, he even spent a huge amount of money to buy a large piece of land in Bayswater, north of Hyde Park, and planned to build a stadium and training ground that could accommodate 10,000 people.
This feat once attracted the attention of Indian media and fans.
Who knows, the good times did not last long.
The mixed indian and European team was unstoppable in the past few years, but after continuous promotion, it was difficult to improve in the English League Two.
The continuous large-scale investment also caused problems with the family capital chain, and they had to suspend the construction of the stadium and training ground.
Debts swept in like an avalanche, completely crushing the club.
At the same time, it also endangered the family's domestic enterprises.
If you are not careful, you will be doomed.
Rajesh returned to India urgently to stabilize the base camp.
His only son Yuvi, who had just graduated from college, was left in the UK to temporarily deal with this difficult situation on behalf of his father.
After sorting out his memories, Yuvi revealed a bitter smile.
They really don't treat time travelers as human beings!
The treatment is getting lower and lower.
The last time I traveled to Germany in 1995, at least I had a job and a coaching certificate.
But what about now?
I'm directly in debt of millions, no, tens of millions.
And it's pounds!
Baba started with a bowl, and I have tens of millions of pounds in debt.
We all have a bright future...
In the previous life, Yuvi coached Chelsea and Arsenal successively, and he was very familiar with London.
The north of Hyde Park is a well-known wealthy area, and Notting Hill, Bayswater, and Paddington are all world-famous.
Where can I get such a large piece of land for a stadium and training ground?
I can only say that the time travel god is awesome.
But this location is amazing!
...
Knock knock knock.
The knock on the door came again.
"Yuvi, are you awake?"
Yuvi looked at the door and calmed down. "Wake up, Uncle luxman."
The middle-aged man shouting outside the door was called Luxman, an old financial officer who followed Rajesh to make a fortune.
The cheap dad returned to stabilize the base camp, and left Luxman to "help" Yuvi.
Yuvi walked over to open the door.
Luxman looked at the prince who had just graduated from the university campus. His handsome and fair face was immature and he felt a little bit reluctant.
Yuvi looks like his mother and has a gentle temperament. He lacks the sharpness of a businessman.
He can still sleep peacefully when the disaster is imminent.
"The Russian negotiator from Chelsea will be here soon. You should get ready quickly. I will discuss the specific matters. Just follow what I told you before and hold on to 10 million pounds. Do you understand?"
Luxman instructed.
Yuvi stayed in London as a mascot, and Luxman was in charge of the specific matters.
But when Luxman mentioned Chelsea, it attracted Yuvi's attention.
"Abramovich?"
"Yes, among the people who came this time is his representative in the bank, Cash Harris, chairman of Seymour Pierce Investment Bank."
"And the famous agent Pini Zahavi."
"It is said that these two people are the key figures in his acquisition of Chelsea this year."
Yuvi frowned.
He coached Chelsea for two seasons in his previous life. The first season laid the foundation, and the second season ushered in an explosion.
The Premier League won the runner-up, second only to Ferguson's Manchester United, and the Champions League was even more unstoppable.
But just after the team finished the semi-finals and eliminated Guardiola's Barcelona with difficulty, Yuvi was aiming for the Champions League championship, and he was fired on the flight from Barcelona to London.
The reason was that he refused to sell the aging Drogba!
After being fired, Yuvi's assistant coach led the team to the Champions League final and won the Champions League.
Now, just after crossing over, Chelsea came to the door again, what a narrow road for enemies!
"Uncle Luxman why do you want to sell this land?" Yuvi asked humbly.
Luxman 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 a hub railway station like Paddington, which is very important in London and even the whole UK."
"We can definitely use this piece of land for financing, attract developers, and engage in real estate. Wouldn't it be more profitable?"
Luxman looked at Yuvi in surprise, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Then there was praise.
But soon, he shook his head with a wry smile.
"Yuvi, you think things are too simple."
Yuvi didn't understand.
"This piece of land is indeed owned by us, but the use has been fixed. In the urban planning of the London Municipal Government, this piece of land can only be used as a stadium or training ground."
"It's not that we haven't thought about the plan you mentioned, but it doesn't work at all. Let's not talk about whether there are investors interested. Even if there are, just changing the plan is a long-lasting trouble. It is simply unrealistic without a few years."
"Even if the government is willing to change the plan, we still have to pay an astronomical amount of money."
When Luxman said this, he sighed helplessly.
"Our capital chain is broken now. Many players have been making trouble with the club after hearing the news. We have also sold a lot of people, 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 last resort to stop the loss.
After selling this land, what will Bayswater do?
The answer is needless to say.
Even the home stadium and training ground have been sold. Is there still a possibility for this club to exist?
Yuvi really didn't expect that he would face such a bad situation just after crossing over.
Is there really no other way?
"We have tried all the ways we can think of, Yuvi."
Luxman saw the unwillingness in Yuvi's eyes and comforted him, "Although several years of hard work have been in vain, at least it will not be a complete loss. After acquiring Chelsea, Abramovich is determined to build a new stadium and training base."
"They are now the only one who is interested in this piece of land and can afford the money."
After speaking, Luxman reached out and patted Yuvi on the shoulder.
"Don't think too much. Go wash your face. I'll go get ready."
Watching Luxman leave, Yuvi felt a nameless fire in his heart.
He was unwilling to accept this!
In his previous life, he was just a head coach, played around by these big teams.
Could it be that in this life after crossing over, he would have to repeat the same mistakes?
Yuvi didn't believe it!
There must be other ways!
