If you highlight the characters and press translate, it says Eight Times.Eight Times.

I did that, but don't get the relevance of eight times, so assumed the translation was wrong...If you highlight the characters and press translate, it says Eight Times.

I doubt it’s what got him banned, but I could be wrong.I did that, but don't get the relevance of eight times, so assumed the translation was wrong...
There is a Chinese proverb about falling down and getting up an eighth time, but no idea of its relevance.

Besides he also thinks our club is beneath him because it's not one of heritage clubs so another reason of why it's impossible for him to join us.
Do you think that matters much to players in their 20s today?
Most young players now have only known City being a successful club since they were kids.
Players want to play for the best teams with the best managers that winning things. Football is a short career and big players want to be winning things now.
I think most people would join us over the rags at this moment in time, regardless of how many trophies they won 3 decades ago. That's why they've spent so much money on finished or crap players, because any elite player now wouldn't be looking at them as a great proposition.
I think Real Madrid is a different story because they're a "heritage club" always competing around the top, so I understand it the allure.
But I don't think a young player today gives a shite about the heritage of united, piss can etc just because they won some trophies when they were still in nappies. They just look at a club nowhere as good as other teams.
Heritage alone won't do it.

Because Klopp allows Salah to be lazy in tracking back at times.He’d best not go to the scouse twats.

Pep would never play him if he didn’t do his defensive duties.

Wouldn’t want this little fanny within a million miles of our club.
And every time we’ve played PSG we’ve rinsed the twerp.
He’s got Saudi cash written all over him imo.

Can‘t See Fenway Sports acquiescing to Mbappe’s endless financial demands.
It is. "Eight times" or "Eightfold" in chinese is read as "Ba Bei". It's a harmless pronunciation of Mbappe's name.If you highlight the characters and press translate, it says Eight Times.
I don’t know anymore than that, sorry.
Not sure why he's banned.
*Source: I know Chinese.
Honestly, I don't want him. I think he's a bad attitude problem waiting to happen.
We've got a great squad of attitudes to match the skillset at the moment and I think he's a risk. Haaland (as much as I love him) shows some mild signs of spitting his dummy out at times but I think it's the wider squads culture that shows him that it's not the norm and it's not how we work. Adding Kylian, as good as he is, might be a bad idea.
