Considering he was talking about the past 10-11 years and not this year, which would assume he's talking about...the last 10-11 years.
And really, what exactly about the starting 11 isn't good? Erm? Probably the best 2 defenders in the league? Arguably the best goalkeeper? Arguably the 2 best strikers in the league? And Chicharito who is gonna be a star?
The only thing City or Chelsea have over United is a Midfield, and Giggs has been better than any Chelsea or City player this season.
And if Football was actually about 11 players only, that argument would actually mean something, but its not, its about a squad of players.

Thats been the case throughout history where some players have overperformed because of either the man they play for or the club they play for.
Although, I don't even get the point of that argument, what does it even matter how they'd perform under a different manager? They perform under this manager and thats all that matters.

Ivanovic and Bosingwa are top players? Vidic, Rio and Evra are probably the best in the EPL in their positions, the other players in defence aren't as good but are mostly young players who are either in their first real season (Rafael, Smalling) or don't have the opportunities to play many games in a row (Evans).
I fail to see how you can say they were worse?
I personally don't rate many of Chelsea's squad at all, their best player by far is Essien when he's on form, but bar their first team there squad is very weak.
And City is just a carbon copy of Chelsea back in 2005/2006 when they could of fielded 2 PL team, they'll never keep all those players happy and sooner or later sell off a few of them.
I'm happy with the Man Utd squad, obviously we need some new players in, and its one of the weakest squad's that United have had in years, but its by no means worse than Chelsea or City, hence why we're first.
It's only really United's midfield which is lacking.
