    Are both of the Keane's playing on our under-age teams or is it just one of them with the other playing for England at the minute?

    Michael is still with us and Will with England. There hasn't been any indication that William will change and he is highly rated at both Old Trafford and in the England setup.

    Are there any other brothers who've lined out for different national teams? I can think of the Boatengs with Ghana and Germany respectively, and it looked like the Kalous might have for a while with Holland interested in Saloman if he'd been able to acquire Dutch citizenship; any others?

    Not at senior level but there was the Gallen brothers - Joe played for Ireland U-21s and Kevin played for England U-21s (although he did tell Brian Kerr he was available when the switching rules changed).

    Kevin has dropped down to non-league level but he was most recently with Luton and Barnet.

    Jon Nurse of Dagenham and Redbridge played for Barbados while his brother Chris Nurse plays for Guyana.

    Also Steve Mandanda of France and his brother Parfait Mandanda of Congo

    EDIT: Heres a partial list http://blogs.reuters.com/soccer/2008...-can-you-help/

    Not brothers but a couple of Jermaine Defoe's cousins have played for a couple of different Caribbean nations as well.

    the de Guzman brothers from Canada.

    Jonathan has represented the Netherlands and Julian plays for Canada.
    If you're paranoid, let me reassure you: everybody is not out to get you. It's only one guy and its not who you think.
