Anderson, Willie I have in my care the Willie Anderson trophy shield for player of the year there are only three players on it B Kane 1976/77, C Vasiliou 1977/78 and J Clements 1978/79. Could anybody shine any light on this trophy? wWat league it was given? American or British? Who are the players? Where and how this trophy come about in the name of the Willie Anderson trophy for player of the year?

Anderson, Willie Last time I saw Willie he lived near Portland Oregon USA. He played for us and then retired. Decent player after he came to USA. Met him a few times after Portland matches. Good guy!

Anderson, Willie League Cup v Man U. Exciting player, just what football needs today. And Villa need now.

Anderson, Willie Always loved players with flair. Even though a staunch Villa fan loved to see down at Villa Park your Charlie Cooke’s of Chelsea and The great Denis Law. Willie Anderson was a beautifully balanced player especially with his pace and trickery and should have achieved more in his career, but I loved him. He was a class act, no doubt about that.

Anderson, Willie Like Charlie Aitken, Willie played in the first match I ever went to in the sixties aged 7. Used to really like when he cut in from the wing into the centre of the park to set up an attack. Willie was a youth player with George Best and to me he was as good I thought
Anderson, Willie I was at Villa Park in the 60's too. Charlie and Willie were my favourite players. Though Willie would break down the wing, outpace the defenders by a mile, then fall over. Probably 50% of the time. Very frustrating.
