This week on Whistleblowers, Gordon Smart, Ian Ladyman and Mark Clattenburg return to the question that’s split football fans on our social media platforms: Are Man City finally a bigger club than Manchester United?

From City’s modern dominance and booming commercial power, to United’s historic legacy and global fanbase - the team pull no punches as they argue whether City really have overtaken United for good.

We also dive into why promoted clubs keep failing by copying Guardiola, and why sometimes you have to play ugly to survive. Mark Clattenburg shares a brilliant Paul Gascoigne Mars Bar story, Ian destroys a viral Maldini & Baresi stat, and Gordon reveals his unlikely past as the voice of Greggs!

Plus: Maradona vs Messi, the reality of being a City fan travelling to Wembley, and how modern football legends would cope against the old-school greats.
