Due to licensing some National Teams don’t have proper players (Germany for example.)
To get rid of this go to “C:/Program Files/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2008/data/db/800/lnc/all” once there copy the file entitled “fake.lnc” (You may wish to put it in a safe place as backup if needed) then delete the file “fake.lnc” and when you start a new game the countries effected will have the proper squad.
All this file does it put a “mask” on the national teams effected and once you remove it will get rid of the mask.

for anyone still wondering about this:
as i just now installed the patch and started a new game i found our national team was once again masked so i looked through the new files the patch had generated and found there was a second Inc folder. so theres actually 2 Inc folders you have to delete now:
one is found under data -> db and the second under data -> updates -> db
