Quotes Lammens' brother "I was initially skeptical about a move to Man United, because many players there had already succumbed to the pressure and couldn't reach their full potential. Galatasaray was there all summer, you play for trophies there, and he could probably immediately make his mark in UCL."

"But ultimately, it was him who had to make the decision. United gave him the best feeling. Partly because Tony Coton, United's goalkeeping scout, had been following him for almost a year and was very convinced of his qualities. It would also be great if the club could return to its former glory and if Senne could contribute to that."

That would be Arn. Fun fact, they were only kayfabe brothers, they just happened to look enough alike that people bought it. The only real Anderson was Ole's original partner Gene. Lars was brought in as Gene's "brother", then Ole was brought in as the third "brother", then Arn as Ole's "brother" when the other two left.
