"Awkward squad" nghĩa là gì?


"Awkward squad" = biệt đội khó xử -> nghĩa là nhóm người trong một tổ chức không hành động vì lợi ích nhóm, không hợp tác vì thiếu năng lực hoặc cố ý; tổ lính mới.

Ví dụ
And the fully paid-up member of the awkward squad was only 12 minutes into play before he started mouthing off against the umpire (trọng tài).  

Tory HQ realises it’s ignorant (ngu ngốc) about the new awkward squad. Sharon Graham, Christina McAnea, Patrick Roach et al are more than capable of biting back.

These days the awkward squad is made up of a dispossessed (bị truất hữu) establishment of former ministers who served under Theresa May. And it is led by May herself.

Kelly Reichardt has been making minimal Americana since the early 1990s, mostly around the state of Oregon where she lives and mostly about her favored awkward squad: quiet square pegs who don’t quite fit the round holes society provides.
