Let discuss Players who are so similiar in style that they are almost liked clones, long-lost identical twins or reincarnation of a past players.
Riquelme and Valderama: Both can pass and dribble, but slow.
Cordoba and Cannavaro: Short centerbacks who get good vision. Cordoba is fast while Cannavaro can jump.
Vinnie Jones and Matterazzi: Classic villian.

Gazza and Jim Baxter always seemed kindred spirits to me. Both were extremely gifted midfielders who did not fulfil their potential were still capable of memorable performances (notably in England-Scotland games at Wembley). Both were also quite fond of a drink and both starred for Rangers.

George Best and Maradona => Maybe not so much in the football, although they were both great midfielders who worked magic for their teams, these are the two party boys of Football.

Ronaldinho and his minnie-me, Giovanni Dos Santos. Dos Santos plays EXACTLY like Ronaldinho and also looks like him.

I think Josep Guardiola and Andrea Pirlo are similar players. They're defensive midfielders that play like playmakers.

Well, Pirlo is a bit stronger and also a has a better shot. If you think Pirlo played withdrawn, Guardiola was often playing closer to his defense than to his midfield!
