    During the 1960's/70's, Chelsea FC had all their 'keepers injured and were forced to play their DC (David Webb), in goal for a couple of matches, and he kept clean sheets in both of them. So it can happen.

    it can happen in real life.In a machine mustn't
    If that happens (which is happens as many other ridiculous things in the game) that means idiot programmers -developers with no commoan sense and not a clue about football.

    What's the point then to have skill points ?
    What's the point of having GK ?
    etc

    Why must it not happen? If it can happen in real life, then it should be allowed to happen in a simulation. If a manager wants to play a 'keeper up in the attack to try for a vital goal, then why shouldn't he be allowed too. Have you never seen a goal keeper go forward for corners / free kicks, late in a game.
