    Johan Crowff

    Of course! If Kuyt is pronounced Kowt then Cruyff...

    He was the first player I saw play (on telly only) who took my breath away, truly one of the all-time greats. And I can't believe I've been mispronouncing his name for 33 years.
    .
    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

    That's what I've been saying all along

    Kuijt is almost pronounced Kate

    But I'm just a silly Dutchman

    Anyway. Agree about Cruijff being one of the Best players I've seen play. He was a Genius with a Football

                      That is confusing.

                          Actually, kuyt is pronounced more like Kowt.

                          cruiiff is pronounced krife....

                            Really? Gullit promounced it Khrowff (with quite a guttural 'K') last night.

                            Pronounciations differ between Flemish and Walloons perhaps?
