Chapter 89: Charge at All the Champions! Which Leg of Ribéry Do You Want to Buy?
December 20th, evening – Loftus Road Stadium, London.
League Cup Quarterfinal: Bayswater Chinese FC vs. Bolton Wanderers.
With the busy holiday fixture list looming after just completing Matchday 17 of the Premier League, both sides made substantial rotations.
Backed by their home crowd, Bayswater Chinese FC seized the initiative.
Allardyce's Bolton stuck with their usual 4-4-2 and successfully resisted Bayswater's early attacks.
But just before halftime, Ashley Young delivered a pinpoint pass into the left channel just outside the box.
Džeko, with his long legs, beat Tal Ben Haim to the ball and slotted a low shot into the net.
1–0.
Bolton were rattled.
And just before the break, Džeko struck again—this time receiving a pass from Inler, turning with the ball, and unleashing a rocket from distance.
2–0!
In the second half, Allardyce made changes but couldn't shift the momentum.
Yang Cheng had started Inler, Matuidi, and Andreasen in midfield, and they completely controlled the tempo.
By the 70th minute, Yang subbed on Gareth Bale for José Fonte.
Andreasen dropped into center-back alongside Koscielny, while Young moved to the No.10 role in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Bale slotted in on the left wing.
Compared to Bolton's rigid 4-4-2, Bayswater looked more dynamic and dominant.
Young even had a one-on-one after a Džeko through-ball—but fluffed the chance.
In the end, Bayswater won 2–0 and advanced to the semifinals.
The other three semifinalists? Manchester United, Arsenal, and Blackburn.
…
With that match done, the team now launched straight into the Christmas chaos.
It was a World Cup year, so the schedule had been compressed—and the holiday fixture list was brutal.
From Boxing Day (Dec 26) to January 2, four matches in eight days.
That's one game every two days—utter madness.
Their four opponents:
Manchester City (home)West Ham United (away)Blackburn (home)Birmingham City (away)
The only silver lining?
The first two games—26th and 28th—were both in London.
And after Birmingham, they'd return home for the FA Cup third round, drawn against Championship side Leeds United.
Luck had been on their side—every cup tie so far had been at home.
The only bad news?
In the League Cup semifinal draw, Manchester United drew Blackburn,
and Bayswater drew Arsenal.
That match would come just three days after the FA Cup tie—both at home.
So at least most of this stretch would be London-based, which helped with rest and prep.
As for the UEFA Cup…
Under UEFA's rules this season, the group winners would face third-place finishers in other groups.
Group runners-up would face the Champions League third-place dropouts.
That's why every team fought tooth and nail to win their group.
The Champions League cast-offs were far more dangerous.
Bayswater, having topped their group, drew Swiss side FC Basel.
A solid opponent, but manageable—and the first leg was away, a clear advantage.
…
With the league and UEFA Cup on break, and the winter transfer window not yet open, clubs had begun their internal preparations.
Yang Cheng called a full executive meeting before Christmas.
In just two and a half years, Bayswater Chinese FC had assembled a top-tier management team.
CEO: Adam CrozierCFO: Xia QingHead of Infrastructure: Chris HunterCommercial Director: Omar Berrada
All top professionals.
And at the Brent training complex, Yang Cheng had plans to launch the next wave of reform starting in 2006.
After more than a year of work, youth development integration, academy building, and scouting network expansion had all produced remarkable results.
So now, it was time to reward the right people.
Dan Ashworth, previously Head of Youth Development, was promoted to Director of Football, fully overseeing the academy and assisting with first-team logistics—easing Yang Cheng's load.Gary Worthington, Head of Scouting, remained in his role but was given a raise and greater responsibility—particularly in building a modern, digital scouting network.Matt Crocker, previously a development coach, was promoted to Head of Youth Development. His performance over the past 18 months had been stellar.Mike Rigg, Chief Talent Officer, stayed in position but like Worthington, received a pay bump and expanded duties—now assisting more with first-team operations.
All of this was about one goal: freeing up Yang Cheng.
Previously, Bayswater's management was immature—Yang Cheng made nearly every decision.
That was fine when they were a small club—decisive leadership, swift execution.
But it had become exhausting.
Especially since joining the Premier League—everything multiplied.
Now, Yang Cheng was delegating authority to both the Director of Football and the Chief Talent Officer.
Each with distinct responsibilities:
CTO (Rigg) focused on personnel. For example, when a coach left, he'd deliver a shortlist of replacements immediately to keep things stable.
With this restructuring, Bayswater Chinese FC had become a serious, professionally run operation.
Everyone at the meeting was pleased—and even a little amazed.
In less than three years, they had become a rising force in English football.
Everything the club had achieved stemmed from the team's results on the pitch—
But none of it would've been possible without the joint efforts of everyone involved.
Yang Cheng, representing Bayswater Chinese FC, personally thanked every department and colleague.
As for winter business?
Yang Cheng stuck to his guns: no winter transfers.
The brutal schedule had proven his preseason plan was spot on.
The squad wasn't big, but every player was getting minutes.
Even Gareth Bale and Theo Walcott, both just 16, had made multiple appearances in the league and cup.
Walcott had already put in standout performances, including scoring in Europe.
Matuidi, too—just 18—was excellent against Bolton in the League Cup.
And then there was the battle between Džeko and Lambert.
By December, the two were pushing each other to the limit—a competition that helped ensure Bayswater's consistency.
"Quality over quantity," Yang Cheng always said.
Not that he'd go full Guardiola and try to survive a season with only 19 senior players—
Not in the Premier League.
But with 23 men, the squad felt just right.
Not everyone agreed…
…
"Ferguson's Manchester United are finally buying defenders."
Adam Crozier smiled as he shared the latest transfer gossip.
"They clearly feel threatened by us—and they see an opening to catch Chelsea."
United were three points behind Chelsea, and two points ahead of Bayswater.
Enough to trigger Fergie's sense of urgency.
"They wanted Škrtel earlier, but we turned them down."
Yang Cheng nodded. He'd made that call personally.
"Word is they're going after Nemanja Vidić from Spartak Moscow. Fee's around £7 million."
Just over €10 million—not cheap.
"And they're also targeting Evra from Monaco. Price tag: £5 million."
As always, Ferguson was pragmatic.
There was a midfield talent shortage across Europe.
Top players were expensive.
Owen Hargreaves at Bayern, for instance—
The Sun claimed Fergie had been chasing him for months, but Bayern wouldn't even answer the phone.
Some reports said the fee was £20 million—€30 million.
Even Chelsea hadn't found a good midfield signing yet.
That's terrifying.
"Liverpool made a move too—swapped Josemi for Kromkamp from Villarreal."
"They'd also shown interest in Škrtel—but we rejected them too."
"Now they're looking at Daniel Agger from Brøndby. Fee is about £6 million."
But based on Škrtel's Premier League form?
Agger or Vidić alone wouldn't be enough to buy him.
The Slovak had already proven himself in England.
Next to José Fonte, he'd looked exceptional.
Even Drogba struggled against him.
"What about Arsenal?" Yang Cheng asked, curious.
Wenger's men were in trouble.
This might be the year they miss top four.
"They've signed Adebayor from Monaco for £7 million."
Ah, Monaco again.
A club full of talent—and debt.
They'd brought in big names like Vieri and Di Vaio.
Transfer fees weren't high, but wages were through the roof.
In a few years, Monaco would serve as a textbook case of how to squander a stacked squad.
Oh, and Monaco also had Evra on the left, and Maicon on the right.
In Yang Cheng's previous life, Maicon signed a pre-contract with Inter this winter and officially joined that summer.
But now?
Inter were quiet, and they'd even scouted Chimbonda.
The butterfly effect was getting… interesting.
"Arsenal also bid £15 million for Ribéry."
Yang Cheng laughed.
"And which leg of Ribéry do they think they're buying for that price?"
The room erupted in laughter.
"I already turned them down," Crozier said.
"But I expect they'll come back with a higher offer.
Word is if they can sell Reyes, they'll push again."
José Antonio Reyes had joined Arsenal for £20 million (€30m) from Sevilla.
He started strong, but faded fast.
Now? His market value had been cut in half—maybe £11 million.
That's about the same as Aaron Lennon's value.
Yang Cheng had only thought of this in passing.
He didn't expect what came next.
While the club was busy prepping for its Christmas celebration—
Arsenal suddenly submitted a second bid.
Not for Ribéry.
They wanted to swap Reyes for Aaron Lennon.
…
News of Arsenal's bid for Aaron Lennon spread fast.
Bayswater Chinese FC responded immediately.
Crozier released a statement through both the club's official site and the media, clarifying:
"We have rejected Arsenal's offer."
The club also arranged a press interview for Lennon, where he said:
"I'm very happy at Bayswater. I really appreciate Arsenal's interest, but I'm focused on helping this team."
But it wasn't enough to calm the media storm.
Arsenal soon came back with a second cash offer:
£13 million.
At 18 years old, Aaron Lennon was seen as England's future star on the right wing.
Especially now that Shaun Wright-Phillips, after his big-money move to Chelsea, had failed to deliver.
Lennon had already become an England international.
For £13 million, signing him would be a bargain.
Wenger even went public:
"Aaron Lennon is young, but he's already shown tremendous potential at Bayswater."
"He's fast, technical, and exactly the type of winger every team wants."
"If we can sign him, he'll give us a huge boost."
The Sun then dropped an exclusive:
"According to club sources, Arsenal chose to pursue Lennon instead of Ribéry because David Dein believes big-money moves should be made in the summer."
"Signing Lennon now strengthens the right wing—and simultaneously weakens Bayswater."
"That could be crucial in the battle for top four."
Crozier turned them down again.
Yang Cheng sat down with Lennon personally.
The winger reassured him:
"Of course Arsenal is flattering… but I want to stay here."
Yang Cheng told him straight:
"You're only 18. It's too early to join a big club."
After gaining promotion to the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese FC's financial income soared.
Just like last year, their Christmas celebration was scheduled once again.
But this time, it went even further.
The players were split into several groups, heading out to visit local community nursing homes, hospitals, and kindergartens around the Brent training complex.
It had become an annual tradition.
And just like last year, Yang Cheng once again invited all the players' families to London.
At the Royal Lancaster Hotel near Hyde Park, the club hosted a grand Christmas banquet.
Every staff member, player, and family member was invited.
This was Adam Crozier's first time addressing the club in his new role as CEO.
He shared the club's successes over the past year and expressed gratitude to everyone for their efforts.
Many—even the players themselves—only realized at that moment how much the club had accomplished without them even noticing.
Bayswater Chinese FC had reached new heights in revenue.
So far this season, all 9 home league matches and 3 UEFA Cup home fixtures had been completely sold out.
They were the only club in the Premier League to achieve a full house every match.
The moment Crozier said that, the hall erupted in cheers.
Yang Cheng, meanwhile, chuckled quietly to himself.
That's the art of public speaking.
Everything Crozier said was true.
No other Premier League team had managed to sell out every single home game.
Why could Bayswater do it?
Because their stadium only held 18,000 fans.
The average Premier League attendance?
Over 33,000.
So even at full capacity, Bayswater drew only half the league average.
But that was the stadium's fault.
And to Yang Cheng?
This stadium was worthless now.
He had once called up his "cheap old man" back in China and asked:
"Why did you only design it for 10,000 people?"
The reply?
"No money!"
Not everyone was like Abramovich, able to throw hundreds of millions at a stadium.
Forget whether foreign money could even be brought over—doing so might even ruin the business back home.
That's why Yang Cheng had cut ties with China.
Now the club was his and his alone.
And he was determined to build a magnificent new stadium on his own terms.
After Crozier finished speaking, Yang Cheng took the stage, this time not only as head coach, but as the owner of Bayswater Chinese FC.
His speech was short and direct:
"After 17 matches, we're 5 points behind Chelsea, 2 behind Manchester United, and Liverpool is chasing us from behind with a 1-point gap."
"Yesterday, we held a management meeting. The club has decided to allocate up to £5 million in bonuses, to be spread across the Premier League, UEFA Cup, League Cup, and FA Cup."
The room erupted in shock—even the players' families gasped.
£5 million in bonuses?!
Yes, it was split across competitions—but still, it was an enormous show of ambition.
"We are a young team."
"Every match, every training session, we grow stronger."
"We've played 17 Premier League games, advanced past the UEFA Cup group stage—by now, everyone knows what we're capable of."
"And I believe, like me, you are all filled with hope—filled with hunger."
"So let me say this on behalf of the club: we will finalize the bonus plan as soon as possible."
"We will not let a single ounce of effort go unrewarded."
"We will not let you down."
"After this Christmas—we have only one goal: CHARGE!"
"CHARGE AT EVERY SINGLE TITLE!"
Just as Yang Cheng returned to his seat, Adele's voice filled the hall.
"Dream It Possible" flowed from the speakers.
Everyone in the room heard it for the first time—and they were instantly hooked.
As the song built, layer after layer of instrumentation joined in, emotions rising with every second.
By the time it reached its climax, the entire room was utterly overwhelmed.
"From the valley to the peak, we blaze like wildfire.
We never give up, never retreat—striving with all we are.
No longer afraid to fall, until the moment you soar!"
Adele's ethereal voice reached deep into the soul—many began to cry.
For the players, it hit even harder.
Her voice, backed by the power of the orchestra, lit their hearts on fire.
Every drop of blood felt like it was boiling.
By the end, everyone felt invigorated.
Even Xia Qing, who had already heard the song multiple times, still found herself misty-eyed.
She glanced at Yang Cheng beside her, and a strange feeling arose.
What kind of person is he, really?
Then Crozier returned to the stage, announcing the name of the song—and revealing that both the lyrics and music were written by Yang Cheng.
The hall went wild.
Too talented!
Too outrageous!
Originally, the song was supposed to debut alongside the club's official promo film.
But production had lagged—Yang insisted on quality first—so the music was released on its own.
And on December 26, during the club's home match against Manchester City, Adele would perform the anthem live at the stadium.
It would be the first official public performance of the Bayswater anthem.
…
Yang Cheng gave the squad a few days off.
With a match on the 26th, players couldn't return home—but they were allowed to explore London and nearby areas with their families.
Then, on Christmas Eve, Arsenal made another bid for Aaron Lennon.
This time: £15 million.
Yang Cheng turned it down again.
In his previous life, Wenger paid £12 million for Walcott from Southampton that summer.
At the time, Walcott had only just debuted—barely a few games in the Championship.
And Aaron Lennon?
Also young—but with Championship and Premier League experience, had played in the UEFA Cup, and been capped for England.
In terms of speed, Lennon was every bit as quick as Walcott.
In fact, at this stage, Lennon was a far more effective attacker.
So Yang Cheng selling him for £15 million?
Fat chance.
After yet another rejection, Arsenal seemed to back off.
The Sun reported that Arsenal were shifting focus to Tomáš Rosický from Borussia Dortmund.
But Yang Cheng wasn't fooled.
Wenger's pursuit of Lennon was about more than just potential.
He saw Bayswater's attack and wanted to mirror it.
On the left, Yang had Ribéry with sublime close control.
Wenger had Pires or Hleb.
Now, he wanted Lennon on the right.
That said, Yang wasn't giving him up.
Not now.
Not for any price.
With Ribéry controlling the left and Lennon stretching the right, Yang Cheng's system relied on width and pace.
The problem for Arsenal this season was the steep decline in Ljungberg's form, which had dragged down their attack.
After 17 matches, the Gunners had scored only 22 goals.
How poor was that?
They were sitting 8th in the table.
West Ham, 9th, had scored 25.
Middlesbrough, 13th, had scored 23.
Even if Arsenal's attack was struggling, they might have compensated with strong defense.
But no—16 goals conceded, tied for sixth-worst in the league.
So yes—Wenger had reason to panic.
As for David Dein, targeting Bayswater Chinese FC was all about weakening a rival.
Among the top four, Bayswater had the weakest foundations.
If Arsenal could poach their key pieces—like Aaron Lennon or Ribéry—not only would it bolster Arsenal, it would hurt a direct competitor.
In the grand scheme of Champions League qualification, spending extra to buy Lennon or Ribéry was well worth it.
Yang Cheng and Adam Crozier were well aware of Arsenal's intentions.
They didn't care about the rumors.
…
On Christmas Day, the entire squad had the day off to be with their families.
Both Yang Cheng and Xia Qing were alone.
So naturally, the two went out for a stroll through London.
In fact, this was Yang Cheng's first proper walk through the streets of London—especially Knightsbridge, with a female companion at his side.
...
Boxing Day – December 26
In the morning, as agreed, the first-team squad returned to Loftus Road.
Yang Cheng had the coaches run quick fitness tests—everyone was in good condition.
At 4:00 PM, the club hosted Manchester City at home.
Before kickoff, dressed in a black knee-length dress, oozing with classy British flair, Adele walked out to the center circle.
She began singing the club anthem.
As Yang Cheng and the staff expected, the crowd's reaction was electric.
After Adele's live performance, the stadium broadcast looped the song—building atmosphere right up to kickoff.
Yang Cheng understood the weight of the festive schedule.
So he prepared for this match with meticulous care.
City manager Stuart Pearce also took it seriously, deploying a tight 4-4-2.
But the players, hyped up by the anthem, stormed the pitch like they were on fire.
City's defense collapsed quickly.
...
City had lost on Boxing Day the past two seasons.
So they were determined to avoid a repeat.
But sometimes, pressure leads to mistakes.
Truth be told, they started well.
After withstanding Bayswater's early surge, they even launched a threatening counter—forcing a save from Neuer, the game's first shot on target.
Then they lost their rhythm.
This was one of four games in eight days.
Yang Cheng had rotated the squad.
This match featured Matuidi and Modrić, with Touré sitting deep.
Once they settled into rhythm, the chances came.
14th minute:
Chimbonda made a key interception in midfield, quickly passed to Lennon, who relayed to Modrić.
Matuidi, being left-footed, was playing left CM—Modrić had returned to right CM.
The Croatian received the ball, turned, and launched a long diagonal over City's back line.
Distin headed it clear, but failed to follow up.
Ribéry pounced, surged into the box, and coolly slotted past David James.
1–0!
Just 14 minutes in—Bayswater took the lead.
City, haunted by their Boxing Day past, lost the plot.
The hosts piled on the pressure.
21st minute:
With support from Chimbonda, Lennon blitzed past Ben Thatcher on the right, swung in a cross, and Yaya Touré smashed in a powerful header.
2–0!
City woke up.
35th minute:
Joey Barton stole the ball from Matuidi, linked with Vassell, and chipped Neuer to pull one back.
2–1!
But instead of caution, Bayswater attacked harder.
Just before halftime, City's defenders collided going for a high ball.
The loose ball landed at Lambert's feet—he dribbled into the box and finished cleanly.
3–1!
…
Second half:
City tried to push forward but were quickly shut down again.
55th minute:
Defender Sommeil was fooled by Ribéry's body feint and nutmegged.
Ribéry entered the box and squared it for Lennon, who tapped into an empty net.
4–1!
That was Lennon's third Premier League goal of the season.
Not a huge tally, but his wing play had been electric.
Yang Cheng then subbed on Bale and Walcott for Ribéry and Lennon.
As City attacked, the two youngsters hit on the counter.
77th and 83rd minutes: Walcott had two threatening breaks, but Lambert and Matuidi couldn't finish.
Final score: 4–1, Bayswater crushed Manchester City.
Elsewhere:
Arsenal edged Charlton 1–0 (goal from Reyes)Chelsea beat Fulham 3–2Liverpool downed Newcastle 2–0United thrashed West Brom 3–0
Top teams all won.
...
December 28
City, fresh off a 4–1 beating, returned home to face Chelsea.
The match was tight.
Joe Cole's goal in the 79th minute gave Chelsea a 1–0 win.
Two holiday losses for City.
Arsenal, back at Highbury, thrashed Portsmouth 4–0, Henry bagged a brace.
As for United?
They traveled to Birmingham—and twice led, only to be pegged back both times.
Uruguayan striker Pandiani, who hadn't scored all season, chose this game to break his duck—against Manchester United, of all teams.
Ferguson was absolutely furious, and in the aftermath, Manchester United accelerated their transfer moves.
Liverpool, meanwhile, won the Merseyside derby away at Everton, 3–1.
Bayswater Chinese FC's away match against West Ham went largely without drama.
With the congested schedule, Alan Pardew rotated his squad and made tactical changes, but they didn't work.
From kickoff, Bayswater took complete control.
In the 13th minute, Leighton Baines delivered a precise long ball behind the defense.
Aaron Lennon, like a red arrow, broke through the Hammers' back line and slotted it into the net.
1–0!
Just before halftime, Ashley Young sent in a cross, and Džeko, receiving it in the box, turned smoothly past Anton Ferdinand and fired home.
2–0!
It was Džeko's first-ever Premier League goal for Bayswater Chinese FC.
In the second half, the team had another golden opportunity.
Inler's long-range effort struck the crossbar and bounced down—Džeko's follow-up went straight into the arms of keeper Roy Carroll, missing the chance for a brace.
Final score: 2–0 away win.
With that, Bayswater moved level with Manchester United on 41 points.
Thanks to a +24 goal difference, they leapfrogged United (+20) to take second place, behind Chelsea's 46.
Mourinho's Blues were terrifyingly consistent.
15 wins, 1 draw, 3 losses, best attack and defense in the league.
A dominant record that left most opponents hopeless.
But not Bayswater Chinese FC.
…
December 31
Arsenal could only draw 0–0 away at Aston Villa.
Chelsea beat Birmingham 2–0 with goals from Crespo and Robben.
Liverpool edged West Brom 1–0 with a strike from Crouch.
United cruised 4–1 past Bolton, Cristiano Ronaldo bagging a brace.
Bayswater hosted Blackburn.
15th minute: Pascal Chimbonda threw in from the right, Modrić lifted a ball toward the edge of the box.
Inler stepped up with a fierce left-footed strike—goal!
1–0!
Then the match slowed down. The holiday fixture pile-up was clearly affecting the players, even with Yang Cheng's rotation.
53rd minute: Ashley Young crossed from the right, the clearance was poor.
Ex-Arsenal winger Bentley failed to clear.
Chimbonda pounced, cut inside the box, and blasted it in.
2–0!
85th minute: Craig Bellamy, coming off the bench, got one back for Blackburn on a counterattack.
But it was too late.
2–1 win for Bayswater.
...
January 2, 2006 – Matchweek 21
Chelsea beat West Ham 3–1 at Stamford Bridge.
Lampard and Crespo on target again.
Liverpool drew 2–2 at Bolton despite twice coming from behind.
United and Arsenal shared a 0–0 draw at Highbury.
Bayswater faced Birmingham away.
Steve Bruce's team fought bravely.
20th minute: another Jani Vio set-piece routine.
Skrtel met Baines' free-kick from the left and headed it in.
1–0!
But 13 minutes later, Birmingham hit back with a quick counter down the right.
1–1.
The rest of the match was a slog.
Yang Cheng's team looked exhausted.
Understandable.
Four games in eight days, constant rotation, mounting fatigue.
You can't expect miracles without Chelsea-level depth.
...
Surviving the brutal Christmas schedule, Bayswater Chinese FC passed yet another test.
3 wins, 1 draw across four games—an outstanding return.
After the Birmingham draw, The Guardian ran a front-page feature, breaking down Bayswater's performance over the holiday period.
After 21 rounds:
13 wins, 6 draws, 2 losses45 points, tied with United but ahead on goal differenceStill 7 points behind Chelsea
But no one questioned their credentials.
Chelsea's squad was absurdly deep—it was an unfair comparison.
The Guardian focused on the incredible stat that Bayswater scored 9 goals during Christmas, by 8 different players.
Only Lennon scored twice.
That stat demanded analysis.
Breaking down Yang Cheng's tactics and selections, the Guardian concluded:
"Yang Cheng has masterfully utilized every player in his squad."
"Even in games where they struggled, like against Birmingham, he managed to steal points with set-pieces."
"He doesn't look like a 25-year-old rookie—he looks like a seasoned world-class manager."
And their praise wasn't just hot air.
...
Just days later, the FA Cup third round saw Bayswater host Leeds United.
After four straight league matches, Yang Cheng fielded a full rotation.
Yaya Touré was on international duty at the African Cup.Skrtel and Modrić were injured.Lambert was still recovering.
A mix of backups and youth played before 10,000 fans.
Leeds actually dominated large stretches of the match.
But backup keeper Danny Coyne and reserve CB Roger Johansen held firm.
Then, in the 88th minute, Danny Collins intercepted a pass and quickly released Gareth Bale on the left.
Bale burned down the wing, and from just past the halfway line, delivered a perfect diagonal pass behind the defense.
Walcott, a blur of red lightning, exploded past the defenders and reached the ball.
One touch, feint, skip past the keeper—
GOAL!
1–0, match-winner!
Walcott, starting in place of the injured Lambert, delivered a last-gasp FA Cup knockout blow.
Bayswater advance.
