With the Club World Cup behind us (and another trophy in the bag for Liverpool), Shane's bound for Singapore where he's intent on making an example of the locals. The sprawling extent of Liverpool's finances are revealed as the lads effectively draw a line under their transfer activity well ahead of the closing of the window. And it's the last game in the save before the FM24 beta gets released - though if we're right, it will have been released on the day of recording, i.e. yesterday.

More on FM24 in an official "yes, we've gotten to play it" capacity next week. For now, it's onward for FM23 and season 12 of The Football Manager Football Show: Liverpool v Man City.
