Larson: Back From The Dead!!!

[homblooie]

This is a major glitch in fifa 2005 (or mine anyway). it may work on other fifas (on ps2) but this is wat happened:

im on my 6th year in career mode and im currently Barcelona. Im winning quite comfortably and i wanted to try out a new formation. there is this player called Teddy Kuhi in my squad (he's 23; young rising person) and he's number 17-striker. Tiago Motta wasn't pulling his weight on the left so i thought i might stick Teddy Kuhi to see how he does.

His appearance is a tanned skin colour, he's bald and he's a fairly small player. Anyway im playing the game and i hear the commentator scream out "LARSON!!!" and i paused and thought to myself-isn't larson like 40 yrs old? (people on the game retire at 34-35) I looked on action replay and it was indeed henrik larson, back from the dead it seemed, and he scored a hat-trick against real madrid. so if ur hoping for henrik to come back in later yrs, this is the procedure i use:

Have Kuhi#17 in ur subs at the bottom (5th sub), then select "play next match" and it will show ur line up. replace motta (or ur left mid) with Kuhi. Whe the game starts, larson will be on the feild and in great form, u can put him in wateva position u like. HOWEVER, the formation i use is the formation with: TWO STRIKERS, ONE ATTACKING MIDFIELDER behind the strikers, then FOUR CENTRAL MIDFIELDERS (left mid-centre-centre-right mid) and then the THREE BACKS (Left back, centre-right back).

Now, this MAY not work, but it has worked for me, and a couple of my mates (all ps2 fifa's). if there are any other glitches the same as this, also, just put a reply in if any other legends have come back in later years.

CIAO!

That happens with everyone, you dont need a trick to do it. When a player retires you get an almost identical replacement instantly, although it takes time for them to get as high a skill level as they may have had before. Sometimes the game just renders the original players faces by mistake. It isnt a trick or a glitch or a cheat or anything.

True this happens but there is a glitch where by the player will look exactly the same as the player he replaced for one game only
and the commentator will call out the replaced players name...
