      Riise vs. Riise
      Oct 22, 2009 08:36:21 am
      With the clash between Fulham and Roma coming up is the chance of the Riise brothers playing each other, with Hodgson claiming he may use Bjorn in the match.

      Was wondering how many times have there been brothers playing against each other? I remember Alonso's brother being in a squad that played us but i don't fully recall. But in all history, how many occurrences have their been of this?

      I think Xabi Alonso played when we faced Bolton with his brother, Mikel a substitute that never came on.

      Surely the Neville sisters would have played against each other at some stage?

      The Etuhu brothers played against each other last season for City and Fulham.

      The Toure brothers?

      The most likely and often is the Neville sisters...but it will be entertaining watching The Riise's in action!

      Think they played against each other in La Liga earlier in the season.

      Ah, yes forgot about them. But they are douchebags so we will just forget about them ;)

      EDIT: Yeah Ross the Toure's might have played each other in the '06 Champions League final eh? Might look that up.

      Xabi obviously at Madrid and think Mikel is at Espanyol.

      Or am I missing something?  :-\ (probably)

      Oh, ;D, I thought you meant before Alonso moved to Liverpool back in 2004. And I just remembered Xabi couldn't have turned up for Socieded in 2004/2005!

      Jack and Bobby Charlton

      Noel and Stephen Hunt (don't think they have played against each other competitively)

      Interesting twist on the Riise vs Riise, anyone see it? John Arne Riise's shot to tie the game against Fulham deflected in off his brother! Now tell me another situation THAT has happened! :D
