  Willie Miller became a legend to Aberdeen fans around the world after he led his team to the European Cup Winners Cup where they triumphed over Real Madrid in 1983. It was the highlight of a long, glittering career during which he won every domestic honour in the Scottish game and represented his country at two World Cups. Here for the first time Willie names his Aberdeen Dream Team. This is the side that he believes includes the greatest Aberdeen players of all-time, playing in the best formation to suit their talents. Willie also names the best man to manage the team but there are no prizes for guessing who that particular gentleman turns out to be. His choices will stimulate debate and huge interest among Aberdeen fans of all ages - who may take issue with some of his selections. They won't be the only ones because also included in the book are the dream teams of celebrity Aberdeen fans like Buff Hardie of Scotland The What, former British Open winner Paul Lawrie, BBC sports presenter Richard Gordon, Radio Four presenter Jim Naughtie, ex-boyband singer Ally Begg and journalist and broadcaster Jack Webster, who all give Willie's choices very close scrutiny! For good measure Willie has also put together a star-studded opposition dream team, all of whom he played against during his career, that he believes would give his Aberdeen Dream Team a run for their money. Willie Miller's Aberdeen Dream Team is packed with entertaining facts about club heroes - the goalkeeper who used to wear a plastic mac and put up an umbrella during matches to fascinating insights into the top players of the modern era - and is an essential read for any Aberdeen fan. Willie Miller is available for events and signings.
