Former Manchester United and Arsenal defender Viv Anderson says the Premier League should be doing more to recognise the passing of Cyrille Regis.

Regis's sudden death this week prompted an outpouring of emotion from figures within the game but the Premier League and Football League are leaving it to clubs to decide on any commemorations.

Anderson told the Daily Mail: "I would personally like to see Cyrille receive a nationwide tribute, because of the ground-breaking impact he had on the game. His life and career should be properly recognised.

"I am bit disappointed that won't be the case. It seems small-minded. Cyrille led the way for many black players and he was taken so suddenly. He was still involved in the game, scouting and advising young talent."
