Poy-AY just seems natural to say really, but from what I gather it actually is Poy-ET. I will continue calling him Poyay though, as I am a true Englishman and need not bother myself with these funny johnny foreigner things.

Just like I used to refer to that french chap as Yann, purely because every time I pronounced his surname I'd say it a different way

Not as absurd as just being a bog standard courgette.

We got Pinochet's name wrong in this country for years, saying PIn-o-chay like it's French. It's a Spanish-based name and is said Pin-o-chet. Similarly, it's Poy-jet but if Gus & Diego are OK with Poyay, who are we to argue?

So I asked Tim Vickery and he said this . I guess that really means officially in Uruguay it's Pojette but in reality it's up to Diego.

The sooner he clears off to a bigger club and we don't have to bother with this pronounciation malarky the better

With his Uruguayan heritage I wonder what Tim Vickery thinks of the lad compared to his dad (of course completely different positions / styles etc...)
