We’re moving from August into September and we’ve got not one but two host-v-host games as Ken has to take on Robbie and Shane in one fortnight.
This week, we’ve got Champions League action with the first two rounds of group games, there are deadline-day dilemmas for one hopeful manager and more in another sweary, ranty week in the world of Football Manager.
As a reminder, here’s how the Champions League groups look like for Benfica (Ken), FC Porto (Robbie) and Sporting CP (Shane)
- Ken: Benfica, Juventus, FC Copenhagen, Man City
- Shane: Sporting CP, Atletco Madrid, PSG, Trabzonspor
- Robbie: FC Porto, Bayer Leverkusen, Sturm Graz, Tottenham
in real life, that would be a hell of a draw.

Shane has been active enough, but these are some of the key signings he’s brought in and gets mentioned this week.
