Manchester City opponents start big The number one star annual salary = Aguero 2.5 days salary

This is the value of the FA Cup, which is the stage for David to challenge Goliath's myth. Newport County from England B against Manchester City defending champion Manchester City may be such a story.

The Premier League team Leicester City and the British League Middlesbrough have fallen this season at the Rodney Parade in Newport. The transfer fee for this team from South Wales totaled just £50,000, in stark contrast to the 450 million-pound luxury lineup of Manchester City, the Daily Mail before the FA Cup match. The team made a comparison.

coach

Newport: Michael Flynn and the team coach who has only served for two years, but his relationship with the team is quite deep. The 38-year-old coach was born in Newport and grew up in Pigeon, a 15-minute drive from the Rodney Parade. He started playing for Newport in 1999.

During that time, he also needed to take care of his postman's work. After moving to Barry Town, he began a full-time sports career. After retiring, he switched to coaching, and Flynn and Manchester City assistant Arteta were the same UEFA professional coach licenses. He took over the team from Graham Westley in March 2017, initially as a firefighter coach, but he led the team to a formal job contract after the miracle relegation.

In recent seasons, the team beat Leeds United, Leicester, Middlesbrough and the draw with Tottenham. These achievements reflect his coaching ability in the cup.

Manchester City: Guardiola should rarely encounter venues like the Rodney Parade in Newport. This football and rugby shared course will increase the number of passing errors. For Manchester City, the next game rotation is inevitable, because the Champions League is much more important than the Premier League. Guardiola needs to strike the right balance and make sure his team can play against Newport when they are in a far cry from the Premier League.
Team owner

Newport: Newport is a popular ownership model in the lower leagues, where the fans trust the club.In 2015, fans worried about the increase in losses, the club will soon be in trouble, regaining control from the boss Les.

At the beginning of the season, rumors that fans can seek external investment in order to climb to higher leagues, after the breakthrough in the FA Cup, the team has raised more funds. If they can beat Manchester City, their income will be very objective.

Manchester City: Sheikh Mansour has completely changed the club since taking over Manchester City.

Money is not a problem for Manchester City. They have already attracted the best players in the world, Aguero, De Braun, Edson and other stars. He turned this team into the best in the world. One of the teams. Although Mansour is unlikely to attend the FA Cup, it is not too difficult for Manchester City in the four-line battle to win the English team. Even Manchester City's second-tier team costs more than 100 times that of Newport.

Transfer

Newport: The team's transfer fee totals 50,000 pounds, which is one-fifth of Aguero's weekly salary.

Most of Newport's transfer transactions are visa-free and leased, because they want to smash some of the fallen favors from higher-level leagues. Cups like the FA Cup can attract attention to the higher leagues, and the player's worth soars.

In 1980, Allen Waddle moved from Swansea to Newport for £80,000. The club’s transfer has been nearly forty years old, but this record has not been broken until today.
Manchester City: Since Mansour was in charge, the jaw-dropping transfer fee has become a common occurrence in the Blue Moon Army. Manchester City does not need to raise funds for the transfer fee as Newport fans. Mahrez joined the team with a record £60 million, but he can only serve as a substitute or debut in the cup, which has become the “worry of the rich” in Manchester City.

salary

Newport: The average salary of the British B team is about £750 a week. Among the Newport players, a star player like Almond is able to get close to 1500 because of his huge influence on the team. The weekly salary of the pound.
Many of these players have other jobs, some of which are placed in the supermarket, and some are in the warehouse before playing. If all the players put their wages in a jar at the end of the week, it would not even be enough to pay some Manchester City players a day's salary.

Manchester City: Aguero only needs 2.5 days to get Almond's salary for a year, which shows the gap between the rich and the poor in England football.

The salary of top league players is soaring, and their weekly salary is as high as 300-350,000 pounds, which is a normal to some extent. As evidenced in the transfer market, for Manchester City, money is not an obstacle to their success.

Manchester City’s annual salary is 260 million pounds, including 210 staff members of 449 football clubs and 239 business and administrative staff.

stadium

Newport: For those who live near the stadium, they don't even need tickets to watch the FA Cup this weekend. Just look out the window and the fans will see some of the best players playing on Newport's court.

Their stadium can accommodate 7,850 people, only 850 more than the training grounds built by Manchester City for the women's football team and the U23 youth team. Perhaps when Guardiola led the Premier League champions, it will be an experience that Newport fans have cherished.

Manchester City: With a luxurious dressing room, a perfect playing field and thousands of seats, this weekend's road trip will be very different from the ones that Manchester City players used to.

Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium can accommodate 55,000 spectators and the stadium is undergoing development work, making it one of the most forward-looking and luxurious stadiums in the UK.

The premium box provides the best view of the indoors, while the players can get everything they want from the best fitness facilities, restaurants, and even places for families.

On the sidelines of the court, players can still keep a certain distance from the fans, but in the game, the player hears every word and every ridicule is a challenge.

Champion trophy

Newport: Flynn defeated Welsh opponent Wrexham in the 2013 Western League play-off final and won the last trophy of Newport. Although the glory of the FA Cup seems to be a very unrealistic goal, nothing is impossible. If you don't believe it, ask Wigan. If Newport keeps going, it will be one of the greatest stories in the history of football.

Manchester City: Guardiola's team, this season's four-line battle, and strive to win the four-line.

Although many people think this is difficult to do, the Manchester City team's lineup is deep enough, and the League Cup is coming to an end, they will be able to get a breather. In the championship of the FA Cup, with the elimination of Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal, they became the favourites to win. The Champions League will consume a lot of their energy, but Manchester City does not want to surrender in the FA Cup.
