Talk:Cruyff turn

Considering this is an English language entry, the article should be named Cruyff turn, with the alternative spelling in parenthesis. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.22.220.61 (talk) 00:46, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

created by Pele
who indeed was the creater of this move?! I cant say exactly who created it but Pele did it long before Cruyff, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oa4qCbYPp2E you can watch in this video. at that time, Cruyff did even not start his professional career — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sir artur (talk • contribs) 22:37, 23 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Pele not popularize this turn. Cruyff popularize it. But this turn was known also before Pele (Ladislao Kubala). Dawid2009 (talk) 16:45, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Should be moved to Cruyff turn with lower-case t
I can't do it because there is already a redirect there. Equinox ◑ 17:26, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Named after Cruyff, not invented by Cruyff
Reverted changes made by an unknown user who stated Eulogio Martínez 'invented' this move. Nobody invented the move and certainly not Martinez. The move can be seen in video's much older than that of Martinez. E.g. I recently saw footage of Gento do this move way before Eulogio Martínez and I'm sure players before Gento used this move as well. So to emphasize: the article states that the move was named after Cruyff, not invented by him. P.C. Hooft (talk) 00:01, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Cruyff Turn → Cruyff turn – Consistency with current naming conventions - For egxample: Marseille turn, Pelé runaround move and so on. Footwiks (talk) 16:48, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
 * NOTE Polish Wikipedia mention also about musical creations called " (The) Cruyff Turn" after that dribbling move: . This should be mentioned in the article Dawid2009 (talk) 07:50, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Support - I note that sources spelt both as 'Cruyff Turn' (e.g. this and this) and as 'Cruyff turn' (e.g. this). However, it is spelt as 'Cruyff turn' in the dictionary so I am inclined to go with that. GiantSnowman 08:01, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Support - Sources are mixed, therefore lowercase is the way to go. Primergrey (talk) 03:40, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Support - Both for consistency (as discussed by the nominator) and because of the mixed usage in sources. ModernDayTrilobite (talk) 14:26, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
