The following rules were used:
[*=center]Only people who are on the original FM database were edited i.e. Patrick Vieira is not longer a player so was changed back to a player and place in the Arsenal squad
[*=center]Any player who was put into one of the squads had their age reduced so avoid 45 year old players
[*=center]When changing a staff member to a player it automatically gives them no stats. I used my best judgement to give the players the stats of when they were at their peak for their respective clubs
In some cases it was unnecessary to reinstate certain players as the positions were already adequately covered i.e De Gea removes the need for Schmeichel
Teaser: Chelsea have a midfield of Kante and Makelele
