The January transfer window is open, the Taca de Portugal continues but more importantly, we've got Robbie and Shane going head-to-head and more in this week's Football Manager Football Show.

It's been a busy enough week at Scoreline HQ as we get caught up with the realities of the real-life sporting season but in FM land, it's back to the grind this week as we pass the midway point of the season and run through January with three games in the league before reaching the Allianz Cup semi-finals as Porto host Braga and Benfica take on Sporting in our second host-v-host game of the week.

There may be some strong language this week but it's all in good jest.

As we approach the two-year mark of weekly Football Manager podcasts, a sincere thanks from us to you for lending your ears to the show.

Follow the podcast on Twitter @FMFShow or trawl the archives at fmfshow.com. You can also follow Ken @tacticalmanager and Shane @sirsok1. One of these days, Robbie promises he'll have a Twitter account. We don't buy it for a minute.
