Let’s talk language for a second. I am a French speaker, but all languages have different slangs based on a number of factors (age, place, socio-economic status, etc). My slang is not Dembele’s slang, but I think I can still shed some light on the expression “sales gueules” which Dembele uses to describe the staff of…
