It's a fresh helping of The Football Manager Football Show as we move through the end of December, through the month of January and into transfer-window territory in Turkey.

Just when you thought a winter break would serve your players well, it turns out that injuries, the African Cup of Nations, suspensions and a slip in league form are starting to take their tolls.

One of our managers has been informed that his recent run of results could result in a club exit while the other is drafting in reinforcements.

There are goals galore in the sixth round of the Turkish Cup as forgotten players get their chances, discover form and reap the benefits. Wonderkids finally get a break before their tags wear off and one club player's just gone and scooped himself a major award.

We're also (thankfully) able to register an extra player or two for the latter part of the season and we break down the change in league rules for Turkish football heading into the 2022/23 season. Will we be around to see it through is another thing.

And if we thought January was going to be tough, February looks like it's throwing up four cup games and four league games in quick succession so squad depth is going to become a real factor.

As always, you can join the conversation or come say hi on Twitter, we're @FMFShow.
